I heard it may have been cast depending on studio scrpt approval. Who is the new Sheena?<br /><br />Also all the Irish McCalla Sheena episodes have been located by a DVD company. I hope they put them out soon.

A l...These are both top-notch jungle-girl stories.<br /><br />A lot of the art in jungle-stories is pretty pedestrian, but the Sheena stories always look very dynamic, though I presume that they were drawn by many different artists, most of whom aren't well-known today, except perhaps Mort Meskin.<br /><br />The "male chauvinism" schtick in LORNA is priceless. If Marvel had brought Lorna and Greg back in the 70's, she'd of probably kicked his ass and made him like it.<br /><br />And yes, Doc Wertham would certainly not approve of such "manly" women.Gene Phillipshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11495562795211277146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31723906.post-44370525842910121642011-05-17T08:07:57.348-07:002011-05-17T08:07:57.348-07:00Chuck, I love finding comics like that.
