Taken as a baby, Tyrone Gorman was offered as a living sacrifice to tigers in the jungles of Malaysia. Instead, the tigress Malma raised him. "Ty-Gor" was unknowingly an heir to a vast fortune back home while he lived the Tarzan bit as a young lad accompanied by Malma. In this story taken from Blue Ribbon Comics #5 (July 1940); originally published by MLJ/Archie Comics, he is found and taken in by an explorer named Davis and his daughter Joan (who are both making their first appearance) leading to more adventures for Ty-Gor outside the jungles.. The script on "Captured by the Dyaks" is by Joe Blair and the art is by Mort Meskin.

Chuck: I really love the art in this one. I love Meskin's relaxed drawing style and wish I could find it collected somewhere. I love how Joan seems impatient with Ty-Gor near the end: "can't you say anything else?" Great stuff. More Meskin, please!
Great stuff , thanks for sharing.
