Tarzan #48 - Russ Manning art

Tarzan #48

Tarzan v1 #48, 1953 - The Brothers of the Spear and their army come to the aid of a besieged city. Rather than fight the attackers, the two men negotiate the deposition of their corrupt king Hanool. Russ Manning's drawings continue to evolve, but he still struggles with faces. Most noteworthy are his pacing and layouts. Combining open and framed opens (see interior page above), the artist brings depth and interest to the story. Other artists in this golden age comic include Jesse Marsh. Photo cover. This is 10 of 133 Tarzan issues by Manning.
