Luaga, Bababu, the Monkey Mail, the name Morristown, and Diana's work for the U.N. make their first Gold Key/King appearances.
This is the last Lee Falk-based story to be published in the 1962-1977 American The Phantom magazine.
This story differs on several points from the original Falk/Barry story; it is much shorter, basically only including the final showdown between Luaga and Bababu, and - maybe most notable - Luaga and Bababu is both Caucasian. Luaga is also referred to as "Luaga of Kelgo" by the jungle chiefs, and Bababu is said to have the rank of a Captain.
