Nyoka the Jungle Girl

Nyoka the Jungle Girl began as a serial in 1941. Ostensibly based on Edgar Rice Burrough's story "The Jungle Girl," it had little to do with the Burroughs story although he was credited as a writer in the first movie. The comic book was published by Fawcett up until 1953. Here's a selection of covers:
