Tarzan: The Joe Kubert Years Volume 3 Edgar Rice Burroughs Tarzan Hardcover July 11, 2006

**Editorial Review of "Tarzan: The Joe Kubert Years Volume 3"** In this third volume of "Tarzan: The Joe Kubert Years," readers are treated to the exceptional artistry and storytelling prowess of Joe Kubert, a legendary figure in the comic book industry. The volume features a faithful adaptation of Edgar Rice Burroughs’ "Tarzan and the Lion Man," alongside several engaging one-shot stories that transport readers into the thrilling world of the classic jungle adventurer. Kubert’s art continues to be a highlight, with bold lines and vivid colors that breathe life into the stories, enticing both new and long-time fans of the character. The combination of intricate illustrations and compelling narratives captures the essence of Tarzan’s core adventures, allowing readers to immerse themselves in rich storytelling reminiscent of the classic era of comic art. However, while the one-shot stories such as "Moon Beast" and "Ice Jungle" are engaging, the main featured adaptation—though faithful—does receive mixed feelings from some reviewers. The plot is perceived as a departure from Tarzan’s typical jungle escapades to more of a science fiction theme, which may not resonate with all fans of the franchise. Despite this, Kubert’s artistic storytelling remains a significant draw, inviting readers to appreciate the volume for its creativity and nostalgic value. For those nostalgic for the age of classic comic storytelling, "Tarzan: The Joe Kubert Years Volume 3" embodies the spirit of adventure and creativity that has defined Tarzan for generations. It’s a must-have for enthusiasts who appreciate the collected works of one of comic history’s great artists. **
