Although she began her golden age career as a super-powered,
fright-visaged "Mystery Woman of the Jungle" illustrated by Fletcher Hanks,
Fantomah later changed her appellation to "Daughter of the Pharaohs."
In between those vastly differing roles, she starred for a time as a garden variety
jungle girl (albeit with lingering supernatural elements) in tales like today's
previously untitled adventure that I've
dubbed "The Turbaned Monkey" from Jungle Comics #16 (Apr.1941);
originally published by Fiction House and illustrated by Robert Pious. This
wild story features transformed ape-men, plus a vengeful sorcerer and other peculiar
perils. The Catacombs is grateful to Don "Zu-Gogo" Falkos for
providing the scans for this story. Note: The copyright for this issue,
