NotesWhile it is true that this story is reprinted from the original in Fawcett's Nyoka #43, even a cursory inspection shows that it has been heavily edited to satisfy Comics Code Authority censors. In this part, for example, a four-panel scene in which the bad guy attempts to kill Nyoka with poison gas in her hotel room has been drastically altered into Nyoka hearing somebody trying to break into her room. In the culminating panel of the series, the original had Nyoka bursting open the door to her room and gasping for breath; in the edited revision, she throws open the door and begins firing her pistol wildly down the hotel hallway, and then the narrative resumes like that didn't happen.
 
Comic StoryThe Mission of Mystery: The Jungle Crash (5 pages)
FeaturingNyoka
ContentGenre: Jungle
NotesWhile it is true that this story is reprinted from the original in Fawcett's Nyoka #43, even a cursory inspection shows that it has been heavily edited to satisfy Comics Code Authority censors. In this part, for example, a three-panel scene in which Nyoka's male companion has been captured by bloodthirsty natives has been significantly altered. In the original, Nyoka's pal is being tied to a stake and set on fire; in the altered Charlton version, however, he's just imprisoned in a hut as the natives dance around chanting, "Death!"
 
Comic StoryThe Mission of Mystery: The Watery Grave (5 pages)
FeaturingNyoka
ContentGenre: Jungle
NotesWhile it is true that this story is reprinted from the original in Fawcett's Nyoka #43, even a cursory inspection shows that it has been heavily edited to satisfy Comics Code Authority censors. This part has been less severely edited than Parts I and II above, but there are still traces of the need to satisfy the censors. On the last page Nyoka and her friend find the kidnapped professor they've been looking for. In the original, the professor appears chained to a chair, and in the following panel you can see the chain whipping around through the air as Nyoka frees him. The Charlton reprint eliminates the chain (no bondage, I guess), and just has him sitting there traumatized in the chair as they hover over him. The problem is that three panels later, when the bad guy breaks in, Nyoka uses the chain to disarm him, which ought to raise the question (if anybody was reading the Charlton version that closely), "Where the heck did that chain come from?"
