4.0 out of 5 stars Adventure the way you like it with Tarzan at the Earth's Cor, June 16, 1998

By	[e-mail] (Phoenix, Arizona) - See all my reviews

The difficulty in writing a good Tarzan story is in finding a foe worthy of the Ape Man. The alien Predators and the mind-bending Mahars of Pellucidar are definitely up to the job. This is a tale of superheroics and Tarzan has never been more savage. Highly recommended.

4.0 out of 5 stars Kreegah!! The Predators are just an afterthought., November 19, 2001

By	Daniel V. Reilly (Upstate New York, United States) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

I'm not too familiar with Burroughs' Tarzan work outside of the Movies and Comics, so the first half of this book had my mind swimming. There isn't enough recap for a Tarzan newbie like me; I bought it for the Predators, and, (sadly) they seem to be an afterthought in the plot. On the plus side, the book really picks up steam in the second half, and by the end I was totally engrossed.

Walt Simonson's story is pretty decent, as is Lee Weeks' art. Predator fans might be disappointed, but it's still entertaining.

Fans who enjoy this should check out Batman/Tarzan: Claws of the Catwoman. Great stuff!

5.0 out of 5 stars TARZAN'S GREATEST CHALLENGE - PREDATOR!, August 27, 2004

By	Michael & Angela (Florida) - See all my reviews

I own all of these comics, and thought this was definately one of the best franchise fits that I've just about ever seen.

Great storyline, along with awesome artwork made this a major hit out of a huge fan of both franchises. A movie and/or animae would do this proud - and I'll bet - sell millions.

Great stuff!
