Disclose Notes: The former feature and character, Jungo, becomes Jungol in this story (except for page 4, where he's referred to as Jungor...).

Previous indexer and Jerry Bails attributed the art to Tom Golden, but the signature more closely resembles the “R. L. Golden” signatures from Jungle Comics #2 and Planet Comics #2 (February 1940) than Tom Golden’s signatures that spell out his full name.
