The publisher was made famous by their original publishing of the Tarzan of the Apes novels and other stories of Edgar Rice Burroughs.

The book was serialized in four parts by Dark Horse Comics, before being published as a single volume in 1995 No dust jacket. Some fading to cover and first couple of pages, but otherwise good.
