Keep us posted on your Tarzan run. I'm curious to see how long it takes you to complete it from now. How many issues did that title run for?
What's next??
206. 
Dell was 1 thru 131
Gold Key 132-206
DC 207-258 (Kubert covers 207-249 & 253)

Thanks Robbie  I am surprised to see it went to DC after GK. I would never have guessed. Well, that will be quite an accomplishment to have the full run start to finish.

That is odd, 'cause Marvel was doing Conan at the time. Conan & Tarzan were popular mostly because of the Frazetta covers on the paperbacks. There must be a story behind why Marvel didn't get such an obvious property.
I've got all the DC (& Marvel) Tarzan, Korak & John Carter comics, and all the Gold Key Koraks (and a couple samples of the really old stuff)... Only have about 40-50 of the Dell/Gold Key Tarzans, nothing lower than #24.
Anyhow, a complete Dell/GK Tarzan set would be an impressive feat (not compared to a Looney Tunes run). Go check ebay, lots of issues are "missing"... if you had enough $$$, today you could buy a complete run of FF or ASM or etc...

Which is kind of an anomoly when talking about Dell comics... ...Their print runs were huge...but their type of material was so often aimed at the younger readers resulting in few copies surviving in high graces...

| Latest buy... 
Not terribly unusual......until you notice that it's the hard-to-find 30 cent cover price variant...intended for the Canadian market according to what I've read...

I was watching that Pogo Parade auction, but bid on some House of Mystery instead. - $27.55 (+ S&H) - it should have gone for $60ish...
That's one of my favorite Pogo covers.
