Here we have Grunch the Caveman, George of the Jungle, Herc, Basuli, Tarzan, and Maugli doing what they do best as a band of wild, muscular jungle brothers, which is flexing their tremendous biceps and emitting such powerful roars that can give any lion, leopard, jaguar, panther, and tiger a run for their money. This is essentially the result of combining a big, strong, beastly caveman, a handsome, muscular Greek demigod who is unafraid to let his wild side show, and four mighty, heroic, powerful jungle warrior kings. When they are not partaking in bodybuilding contests by flexing their powerful muscles, they engage in swimming contests, vine-swinging, circuit training, hunting with their bare hands, super strength, claws, and fangs, and having a lot of wrestling matches which is their most favorite past time. Their battle royale style of wrestling would mean that they would start by flexing their muscles at each other whilst circling each other like lions, commence with the wrestling match, and the last wild man standing will let out a triumphant jungle yell while beating his chests and flexing his powerful muscles.
As you can see, I put all of them in leopard-skin speedos not only to add more virile appeal to all of them but to also heighten their feral nature reflected in their fangs and their powerful muscles. This means that poachers, corrupt businessmen, and their general prey better have a prayer when they come face to face with these mighty and godlike jungle warriors.
Just to be clear, I inserted the 1960’s version of George of the Jungle and the the late 1960’s and early 1970’s Russian version of Mowgli because I prefer these two incarnations over the Disney version. In terms of Maugli, he is easily the best version of the feral man cub who is leagues better than Disney’s Mowgli due to the fact that I saw his journey from being this rambunctious boy to a heroic grown-up man who ended up wrestling with Shere Khan and defeated him by dislocating his jaw. Ergo, Maugli is a badass jungle lord I look up to.
This also goes hand-in-hand with my headcanon of George, Basuli, Tarzan, and Maugli being brothers and sons of Chief Keewazi, feral human brothers to Kaj and Simba, and feral human sons to Mufasa. Aside from Simba being the eldest brother who holds a lot of responsibilities and who is a role model to his younger siblings and Kaj being the second eldest brother known for his ferocity, George is the lovable, goofy, protective third eldest brother, Basuli is the warlike, fierce, and proud middle brother, Tarzan is the fierce, competitive, fiery younger brother, and Maugli is the athletic, rambunctious, hyperactive youngest brother. In my view their current ages would be, in human years, Simba at 53, Kaj at 52, George at 51, Basuli at 50, Tarzan at 49, and Maugli at 48 with Simba being married to Nala, Kaj being married to Fox, George being married to Kuwanga, Basuli being married to Namontack, Tarzan being married to Kocoum, and Maugli being married to Mawunga and all of them having children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.
Just remember to not underestimate their power. Otherwise, you will be at the mercy of their headlocks, fell Nelsons, drops, camel clutches, bear hugs, back-breakers, lifts, and neck-breakers. These six jungle warriors really mean business.
I hope you all enjoyed this and I will see you in the next submission. Take care and stay safe, everybody.
