Adventures of the Jaguar

    (Radio, 1961-1963)
™ and © Archie Publications

Survival of the fittest is a daily drama acted hundreds of times on the Kenyan savannas or in the Brazilian rainforests. A common thread connecting these life and death screenplays is the constant presence of the predator. South American aborigines refer to the jaguar as “yaguara” a beast that kills its prey with one bound. Fortunately, veterinarian Ralph Hardy’s alter ego El Tigre‚ neither kills nor maims but stalks criminals using super-strength, invulnerability and telepathic control over animals. Whereas most men would envy the Jaguar’s natural animal magnetism‚ Hardy considers his alter ego a social hindrance. Ralph Hardy leads an interesting double life, both as the pursuer and as the pursued.
