#700 - Thank you to all friends

Two score and some months ago, when I stepped in to help run this blog, I never knew how long I would be doing this. Well this is the 700th post in this blog.

I present here the just concluded Tarzan strip is S205 The Gorilla Camp Raiders, which ran for 14 weeks between 1997-08-17 and 1997-11-16. The first panel looks like this:

This had been provided for our enjoyment by Emile, who else? Download the strip from Emile's original link  here.

While I have to thank all the visitors and readers, I would be remiss in my duty as a human being if I do not let out a shout for Emile A Schwarz. I have been honored to be his friend for so many years and also a member of some groups where Emile is a member. I have always been astonished at the amount of knowledge and dispensation of the same shown by him. He has some of the best databases of comics strips available anywhere on the net and the kind of details for the Indrajal Comics he used to share in Ajay's blog when Ajay used to post IJCs is just a small example of that.

Thank you Emile for your friendship and all the comics and strips that you have shared with me over these past years.

Now enjoy the strip,
