Fight Comics #74
"Avengers of the Jungle" kicks off in Fight Comics #74, a 1951 adventure from Fiction House where Dr. Douglas, on the brink of leaving the jungle, fires his corrupt guides—Shane, Hall, and Martin—after their mistreatment of porters. The trio, betrayed and vengeful, team up with the tribal leader Gorundi, setting the stage for a deadly ambush by Buhutu warriors. Written by Allan O'Hara and illustrated by Ken Battefield with inks from the Iger Shop, the story unfolds with tense tribal politics and hidden dangers, all under Maurice Whitman’s striking cover.
