November 10, 2025 and fifty-one years ago on this day years ago in 1974, the Russ Manning scripted and illustrated Tarzan Sunday arc, Tarzan in the Valley of Mist, began. You can read the entire 14 week story arc at: https://www.erbzine.com/mag21/2131.html. Many of the pages are from French versions of the Sunday page. The pages begin as full page versions and conclude as ½ pages. The story features a hot air balloon, that somehow works without a burner. It’s mistafying.
Tarzan and Liz, the woman he rescued, emerged from the mist covered valley. Liz asked, “Are we safe? What kind of tree is this?”
“Don’t know. I think it’s a mist tree.”
"My friends were right behind us.”
Tarzan replied. “They tried to escape the billowing haze, but were too slow. They were mist taken.”
“Perhaps the natives in the valley took them. We have to go back.”
“No. The tribe’s leader, the mist chief means trouble. I was mist guided and mist took him for an honorable man. I don’t know the way.”
