The famous jungle man created by Edgar Rice Burroughs is one of the most widely known characters in modern fiction, having appeared in books, in movies and on television. A legendary hero, Tarzan enjoys the distinction of starring in the first adventure comic strip, the first continuity strip and the first strip to appeal to generation after generation for more than seven decades.
A full-length animated Tarzan feature was released with great success in 1999, marking the 48th film adaptation of the loincloth legend. Tarzan is popular in more than 50 countries around the world.
Tarzan originated in Burroughs' 1912 short story "Tarzan of the Apes." Several books followed, and in 1929, the Lord of the Jungle made his first appearance in a daily comic strip. In 1930, United Feature Syndicate took over the syndication of Tarzan, launching the first Sunday comic in 1931. UFS continues to syndicate classic Tarzan daily and Sunday strips.
Plus Licens represents United Feature Syndicate and Newspaper Enterprise Association for syndication rights to Tarzan in Bosnia-Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Macedonia, Montenegro, Poland, Romania, Russia, Serbia, the Slovak Republic and Slovenia.
