A Tally of Tarzan Kills in the Dell Comics

Dell Comic #62Dell 34

This listing of Tarzan kills in the Dell Tarzan comics includes the 2 Four-Color issues, the 131 regular issues, and the 10 annuals. The list was complied as I worked on the summaries of the stories. The list may contain errors, and I may have missed a kill or two. Any addition or corrections to this list would be greatly appreciated by me and anyone using this list for research.
Only shown kills were listed. There were many battle scenes in which kills were probably and likely. These are noted but not listed as confirmed kills.
