geekwayne's review against another edition
2.0
'Lords of the Jungle' by Corinna Sara Bechko with art by Roberto Castro is a team up between Sheena Queen of the Jungle and Tarzan Lord of the Apes. I like both properties, but this story just didn't do it for me.d
Sheena and Tarzan are from two different times, so some magical time travel has to occur. Sheena's jungle is in trouble and in her pursuit of the bad guys, she finds herself in Tarzan's jungle, but Tarzan isn't there. She meets up and befriends Cheetah and an elephant. She gets transport on a ship to London with a circus where she finally meets Tarzan.
Through this whole adventure, Sheena where's a skimpy outfit, and yet, no one in the 1930s world of Tarzan thinks it is strange or even stares at her. There is also an environmental message that fell a bit flat for me. It takes a while for the team up to finally happen, and it just felt underwhelming to me. The story and art were just not impressive. I wanted something better with these two characters meeting.
I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Dynamite Entertainment, Diamond Book Distributors, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
