Although she was clearly done by dozens of different writers and graphic artists, ninety-nine percent of the time no artist or script writer is ever named for Nyoka, and this issue of Master Comics is no exception. But I can honestly say, I believe this graphic rendering of the Jungle Girl is the sexiest ever done . ....
