ERB wasn't very successful at anything until he started writing A Princess of Mars, I believe it was. Tarzan may be his most famous but many of his other stories are better. Some are quite excellent, Like "The Mucker" "The Moon Maid" and probably the best of the bunch "The Mad King" and "The Outlaw of Torn".

ERB didn't really care for Weismuller as Tarzan or Buster Crabbe forthat matter. He though Bruce Cabot (Herman Brix) from one Tarzan film in the 30's played the prt perfectly as well as looked the part the best.

I must say I really liked Greystoke with Christopher Lambert as Tarzan as a film adaptation.

The best Tarzan comics were the ones drawn by Russ Manning for Dell Four Color, later Gold Key. The Sunday strips done by Bourne Hogarth were also exceptional but probably the best strip work was done by Hal Foster before he started Prince Valiant.
