Some years ago, I picked up a "library" paperback called "Fighting Rebels of the Desert" by Edward R.Home-Gall. This was dated to 1948, and combined Foreign Legion adventures with a boxing story--sometimes to a ludicrous degree.
One of the scenes in that book was the exact same scene depicted on the cover of this issue of "Triumph".
One wonders if the "Fighting Rebels" was a reprint of this serial. If subsequent issues of "The Triumph" show up, and we get scenes wherein the hero is buried up to his neck in sand, anointed with molasses, and left for the insects and arachnids,, then that will prove quite likely.
