Don't know if it is already out or eventual to emerge. What is noted is that they used Burne Hogarth's version of Tarzan as a visual guide to the character.Neil A.

I'm not saying the show wouldn't get criticized for being dated, but people criticize almost EVERYTHING for being dated (and not just "politically correct" people).Granthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09603892208775996594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31723906.post-91621741750169129562016-08-28T13:23:10.479-07:002016-08-28T13:23:10.479-07:00I bought one of these workbookson eBay to see the ...I bought one of these workbookson eBay to see the lovely Russ manning linework.

It seems in the past few decades the character himself has been sort of shuttled into the background...everyone knows who Tarzan is, but there is no longer a popular movie franchise, television show, etc., those things people now use in lieu of having to read.<br /><br />Pappyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01977289662431694607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31723906.post-5754740750226877882016-08-26T09:31:14.887-07:002016-08-26T09:31:14.887-07:00Thanks for posting this, Pap.

Of course, for socio-political reasons I'm not sure Tarzan would be an acceptable story to use anymore.<br />John on the Sunset Coasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06613893870788575260noreply@blogger.com
