JUNGLE LIL
Or perhaps I should peruse...
JUNGLE JO
Nah, I don't want any run of the mill jungle folks. I want rank!! I want to know their place in the teeming jungle hierarchy!! And I want some kind of weird trade dress on all my jungle comics!
So how about...
TEGRA, JUNGLE EMPRESS
After just one issue, though, Tegra changed her name (and her hair color...you know how empresses are) to...
ZEGRA JUNGLE EMPRESS
Do you have anything else in a Z?
ZAGO, JUNGLE PRINCE
But this is all very generic. I'd love to know what specific jungle I'm adventuring in. What do you have, Fox?
JO-JO CONGO KING
[Fun fact: Jo-Jo somehow had two consecutive issue #7s, but they seemed to have made up for that by skipping issue #13! Then, with issue #31, the series changed to My Desire: Intimate Confessions. Then two issues later they renumbered, going from issue #32 to issue #3 (!). With issue #5, it again morphed, this time into Murder Incorporated...which immediately went from issue #5 to issue #1 the next month. Next time I'm grumbling while trying to file my seemingly randomly numbered Hercs or Captain Americas, I'll try to remember how good we actually have it now...]
Anyway, kings, princes, empresses...c'mon, Fox, do you have anyone with some REAL rank??
RULAH, JUNGLE GODDESS
Or...
ALL-TOP COMICS FEATURING RULAH, JUNGLE GODDESS
Or...
ZOOT COMICS, STARRING RULAH, JUNGLE GODDESS
I'm guessing she was pretty popular...and I'm guessing that Goddess outranks King, prince and Empress.
So many choices. But you know what? I've finally decided that I want a little Hollywood in my jungle comics:
DOROTHY LAMOUR, JUNGLE PRINCESS
That's an awful lot of jungle comics, is all I'm sayin'. But then again, that ain't so different than having dozens of heroes in New York City or Gotham...

Can you imagine the crossover? Crisis in Infinite Jungles, anyone?
Gary just blew my mind. If someone doesn't do a Jungle Justice League, there is no god.
Personally, I like Rulah's daring fashion choice of going with the giraffe pattern instead of the rather pedestrian tiger motif.
