| Cataldo sure pulls out all the Burne Hogarth stops in these stories. |
|
| It is a fun comic book. It get's going in the first story all the way to the last. I really don't like jungle comics, but this one changed my mind! |

Kaänga and Ann offer assistance and they are all attacked by the Ka-winas, an ancient tribe determined to keep their home inside the volcano a secret. Kaänga uses the explorers' dynamite to ignite the volcano and destroy the Ka-winas and pushes the plane off the rim to glide to the jungle below.
