ALTERNATE CAT-COSMOS

 Stan Lee's alternate-universe take on Catwoman was nothing special...



But a backup strip had Darwyn Cooke contributing a story about one of Catwoman's neighbors, name of Dinah, and this was a little better executed.

SLAVEMASTER WAGES PT. 2

 I explained the concept of this series here, but since that excerpt, pliable "slave" Yuuki has undergone various adventures with-- and received various feminine favors from-- many mistresses. Original mistress Kyouka is clearly jealous of sharing, though the particular excuse for this wrestle-mania involves Kyouka having heard that Yuuki's sister used to bully him with wrestling-holds.

LUCY RAISES CANE

 Heroine Lucy is so desperate to get hold of funds for a ransom that she kayos her brother with-- a skinny little cane?



JUNGLE GALLERY

 Some Sheena scenes circa 1945.



Here's the jungle queen punching out an ape, one of her better feats. The dwarf in the background, Lukano, poses as a "master of animals" to form a jungle empire. Also, though both the cover and the interior story display the title, "Veldt of the Vampire Apes," no entity, animal or human, living or dead, shows off any vampire-like aspects.




Hawkina is one of Sheena's better enemies. Apart from her drugged war-club, she also uses trained hawks and tribesmen who glide around with winged costumes.





Bungle in the jungle with King Kongo (at least the writer had a sense of humor). Aside from him gaslighting Sheena with a fake severed head of her mate, he claims that rather than marrying her himself, he's going to subject her to increased humiliation by making her marry his dwarf servant.





This cover references King Kongo and his harem and thus was probably originally intended for the previous issue. No kings or harems here, but there is a weird contrivance where plotters nearly electrocute Sheena with a pair of rigged-up female dummies.
