Kubert's adaptions were brilliant. I like them even better than Buscema's and Manning's.

Herman "Bruce Bennett" Brix for the films.

But Hal Foster elevated the characters to an artistic height that hasn't been matched in any medium.

Hal Foster for the overall winner.

Never read any of the comic adaptations, so I voted for Greystoke. For some reason, that movie has stuck with me for 3 decades now.

I tried to be objective, but I hovered my mouse cursor over Ron Ely television show, and I just had to go CLICK!

That show used the old Weismuller Tarzan yell and I loved it.

I also loved the Filmation series so CLICK!!
