Synopsis for "Tom-Toms of Danger!"
Lorna, the Jungle Girl #14Tom-Toms of Danger!
While travelling through the jungle Lorna and Greg Knight hear the drum beats calling the Gabu tribe to war. Knowing that the Gabu people cannot help but follow the call of the drums, Greg Knight goes off into the jungle to stop any conflict, telling Lorna to stay away as the jungle is no place for a girl. As usual, Lorna disobeys Greg's orders and swings into the jungle to see what she can do to stop the current crisis.
The drums are being played by the renegade Gabu warrior named Moki who seeks to take over the tribe. Akabi, the ruler of the tribe, tries to rally his people against Moki however they are also enthralled by the drums and come to Moki's call to war. Lorna arrives just as Moki has gathered his forces and tries to swing in to stop them when she is suddenly attacked by a lion. Greg comes to her rescue shooting the big cat dead, but their momentary distraction leaves them open to being captured.
Eventually, Lorna and Greg break free and defeat Moki, freeing the rest of the Gabu from his control.

Notes
- This issue was filler material for Ka-Zar, following the cancellation of the Doctor Doom serial. The storyline for issue #8 picks up again with issue #10.
- Only the 1st 4 pages of "Tom-Toms of Danger!", and the last 2 pages of "The Green Opal!" were printed.
- In the letters section of Astonishing Tales Vol 1 11, Anthony Kowalik pointed this out. The Bullpen briefly explained that they had intended to use the 2 stories as filler in separate issues, and got them mixed up at the last second.
