Following in the footsteps of the upcoming Tarzan: The New Adventures, Dark Horse Comics has announced another collection of Tarzan comics never before seen in print. Written by legendary comic book writer Roy Thomas and illustrated by Pablo Marcos, with lettering by Oscar Gonzalez, the strips were originally published as webcomics in the format of a Sunday newspaper strip behind a paywall on the Edgar Rice Burroughs website. The new collection, Tarzan of the Apes Volume 1, is set to hit comic stores in August and bookstores in September, and will adapt the titular Tarzan's origin and early adventures.

A prophecy claims that in the comic book industry's darkest days, a hero would come to lead the people through a plague of overpriced floppies, incentive variant covers, #1 issue reboots, and super-mega-crossover events. Unfortunately, nobody can tell when the comics industry has reached its "darkest days" because it somehow keeps finding new lows to sink to. No matter! Jude Terror stands vigilant, bringing the snarkiest of comic book and pro wrestling clickbait to the undeserving readers of Bleeding Cool.
