British Comics Update: It’s A Jungle Out There! UK versions of All Top, Cave Girl and Jungle Comics
*Vintage UK/Australian Reprints of US Material: Three uncommon and eclectic reprints of classic US jungle stories this week. From Streamline, an unnumbered (and as far as we know one-off) reprint of Fox’s All Top Comics, with a re-worked cover. All Top contained (as here) Rulah, Jungle Goddess and Jo-Jo, Congo King, plus Blue Beetle and a wonderful Matt Baker Phantom Lady story, all black and white. This copy has a back cover stain and wrinkle, which extends into the last few pages to a lessening degree. Only ever seen this issue once before. Action Series #8 (Cave Girl) from Miller is 68 pages of Bob Powell’s beautiful Cave Girl and Strong Man, plus Frank Frazetta’s White Indian, all in black and white. Never before seen by us. Solid copy with a little glue puckering at spine and a lower spine split. Also from Streamline, an unnumbered Jungle Comics featuring Camilla and other Fiction House adventure reprints in full colour. Off bottom staple, which is rusty.
