Lorna, The Jungle Queen #1

Lorna, the Jungle Girl #1 was published by Atlas Comics, the 1950s iteration of the company that would later become Marvel, in July 1953. This title emerged during a period when the jungle adventure genre was experiencing a surge in popularity, heavily influenced by the enduring success of Edgar Rice Burroughs' characters. It served as a vehicle for the company to capitalize on the public's fascination with exotic wilderness settings and heroic archetypes during the early Golden Age of comics.

The character was created by writer Don Rico and artist Werner Roth. Roth, who later gained fame for his work on the X-Men, employed a dynamic and illustrative style intended to emphasize the visual allure of the jungle environment and the physical prowess of the lead character. The series was generally received as a standard but competent entry in the jungle adventure market, notable for its distinct art direction which stood out among the many similar titles being produced by various publishers at the time.
