Return of the Fang!

YACReader - Lorna, The Jungle Girl #12 (1955).cbz 2019-09-08 13.54.15.png

Lorna is swinging through the jungle when she hears a scream. Investigating she finds a tribesman named Gaku who is the latest victim of a creature the locals are calling the Fang. After fighting off a pack of hungry hyenas, Lorna goes to tell Greg Knight what happened. Greg is less than impressed with the interruption as he is taking a man named Mr. Slade on an expedition. However while Greg refuses to go searching for the Fang, Slade offers his help. However, Slade's eagerness to help Lorna strikes Greg as suspicious and he decides to keep a closer watch.

Not far away, Slade tells Lorna that he sees something moving in the bushes and goes to investigate. He soon begins to scream sending Greg coming to their aid. Not wishing Greg to be put in danger Lorna knocks him out just as the Fang arrives. It attacks Lorna, but the creature is forced to flee when a lion comes to the jungle girl's aid. She goes back to Greg who is just coming out of it and learns that Slade was the next victim of the Fang. The pair return to camp and find Slade alive and well and he tells them that he barely escaped the creature.

Lorna decides to watch over the camp for the next few days and when Slade goes off to hunt buffalo on his own, Lorna follows after him suspecting the Fang to strike again. Suddenly she hears Slade scream again and the Fang appears once more. Sneaking up behind the Fang, Lorna lands a knock out punch and removes what is actually a costume revealing that Slade is really the Fang. She takes him back to camp as a prisoner and reveals to Greg what she discovered. Slade then confesses that he came up with the Fang guise and murdered the tribes people to cover up the fact that he had previously murdered guides in the past. Lorna and Greg then tie up Slade and take him to the authorities.

After the beast is shot dead the pair are then attacked by the Upakis. Greg knockings Hallingsworth out in order to deal with the cannibals. Greg is no match for the number of cannibals who are convinced that he is a brave warrior and instead of killing him, they tie him to a tree and leave him to the beasts to deal with.

However a rain begins to fall, causing the ropes around Greg's wrists to swell enough for him to get free. He then follows the Upakis back to their tribe where they have taken Hallingsworth to be their sacrifice. Greg sneaks into the village and rescues Hallingsworth taking him back to where they felled the rhino. When Hallingsworth finally comes around he has no memory of the cannibal attack. When he threatens to report Greg to the Hunters Association, Greg reminds him of how he choked trying to deal with the rhino and Hallinger quickly drops the subject and allows Greg to take a picture of him next to the felled rhino in exchange for keeping quiet.
