American Comics Update: The Arch Collection: It’s A Jungle Out There: 2 late Fight Comics with Tiger Girl
*Miscellaneous 1940-1959: From our fabulous Arch Collection, two late issues of Fight Comics published in 1951/52 by Fiction House. For much of the second half of its run Fight cover featured Tiger Girl, an Indian princess of Indian/Irish parentage transposed into the African jungle with her pet tiger. This included a nice run of covers by Maurice Whitman, two examples of which are included here. But Fight wasn’t just a jungle comic; crime, war and adventure strips could also be found within its pages, such as Kayo Kirby, Rip Carson and more.
