The first six issues of Fox Features' comic series ZOOT COMICS were a mishmash of funny
animal antics with some adventure tales. ZOOT COMICS #7 went in a different direction. The
front cover, drawn by the amazing Jack Kamen, is the first appearance of Rulah, jungle goddess,
with interior artwork potentially by Matt Baker.
Jane Dodge's airplane crashes in the jungle. Her clothes shredded Jane creates an outfit comprised
of giraffe hide and parachute cords. She then goes in search of people. After some altercations the
villagers of Towla have Jane fight a leopard to prove her worthiness, then designate her Rulah,
their "jungle goddess." Also included in this issue is the six page HARRY, a teen humor story and A
thrilling adventure of ace reporter Joan Mason. This collection is missing the two page prose story
"JANIE RUNS FOR MAYOR" and both sides of the back cover. This reproduction of ZOOT COMICS #7
was made from the best scans currently available. I will update it if better images are located.
