Early in the transformation of comic strips to comic books, United Features Syndicate published Comics on Parade as a showcase for its most popular strips, including Tarzan, Li'l Abner and Nancy. Tarzan rescues and befriends Sheeta the panther, an act that benefits him after he is captured by hostile tribes, in the adaptation of The Beasts of Tarzan with art by Rex Maxon. Bathless Groggins and Sourpuss Boom compete to take Miss Abbie out... at the same time.
