The Return of Jungle Doctor!
Sincer he first debuted on this site last summer, there has been an increasing demand for the return of Frank Dale, Jungle Doctor. Due to a recent acquisition of Dr. Kildare #5, I can now happily acquiesce…here he is again: Jungle Doctor.
In scattered issues of the Dr. Kildare comic that was published in the early 1960s, there was a 4 page back-up feature called “Jungle Doctor.” These short adventures told the story of Dr. Frank Dale, a traveling doctor in deepest Africa, and his assistant, Bob Rose.
In last year’s adventures, Jungle Doctor decided who would be the chief of a village, and rescued a family trapped in a raging river. This time, Jungle Doc confronts “Jungle Fever” (and not in the slang, Spike Lee meaning).
