Ka-Zar was an American pulp magazine that published three issues in 1936 and 1937. Each issue had a lead novel, featuring Ka-Zar, a character modelled after Tarzan. Ka-Zar had been born David Rand, orphaned in the Congo when a plane crash killed his parents, John and Constance. David was raised by a lion named Zar, and can speak to animals. The novels, written by Bob Byrd, are described by pulp historian Robert Weinberg as "all clearly derivative...[showing] no originality in either content or form". The first, "King of Fang and Claw", tells the story of the plane crash, and Ka-Zar's revenge on the men who caused it. The other two novels are titled "Roar of the Jungle" and "The Lost Empire". The novels were supplemented by short stories, all of which were jungle adventures. Contributors in
