Darkest Africa (Republic, 1936) is one of our favorite serials, and when we came across some rare stills from this 15-episode adventure, we thought we's share them with you so's you can see why we like it so much. Flying Bat Men in skirts! A pudgy Jungle Boy in loin cloth! A dynamic hero socking Ed Cobb in the beezer! A beautiful, statuesque blonde babe who is, we're supposed to believe, the sibling of said pudgy jungle boy! Bonga, the Ape with Almost Human Intelligence and Above-Average (for Republic) Acting Skills! And don't even get us STARTED on Hambone. So anyway, scroll down and enjoy!
