From the heart of the jungle comes a savage cry of victory. This is Tarzan, Lord of the Jungle. From the black core of dark Africa, land of enchantment, mystery and violence comes one of the most colorful figures of all time.
Transcribe from the immortal pan of Edgar Rice Burroughs, Tarzan, the bronze, white sun of the jungle. And now in the very words of Mr. Burroughs, the story of jungle hijackers.

You don't have to serve me. My wreck is captain in the governmental police's about the equivalent of a private fourth class in your army. According to Major Habrock... He must have changed his opinion, sir.
