Description

Published 1965 by Dell

Naza in the land of the Mighty Ones.

Jack Sparling stated doing comics strips Hap Hopper and Claire Voyant in the 1940's. In the 50's he started doing more comics work for Dell, Classics Illustrated, DC and Charlton among others.
He was mostly a hit or miss artist for me, where I paid more attention to the content than the art. But occasionally, like this cover, his art was spot on.

I was never much of a Sparling fan myself, but this cover is really nicely drawn and it looks especially nice compared to the colored version!

Yes, the colors are terrible and the dialogue atrocious on the printed cover!

¡Viva la Naza!

The lines, the beast, is real
The lines, the beast, is real
Yo! Naza reader, I got the passion from times that's gone
None shall perish, must triumph with the Sparling charm
Mighty One isn't enough, as we know
Beast and prey, old buffalo, like a sherriff, Gold Key was my Dell though
And I'm tougher than tough, Sparling's enough 'cause

His line's a treat, a steal (what)
His line's got heat, a deal
Yeah, I don't fear if you won't knife these
Witchy doctors wants to fight me
Can you feel it?
Hey, all you knows evil, I ain't the one you want to meet
Hey Naza's más caliente
I'm too hot for you
That Keena feet
