There were 20 books published in this series, the first book published in 1926, by Cupples and Leon, in an imitation of the Tarzan series
The first 10 were set in South America, where Bomba, who grew up in the jungle, tries to discover his origin. A common theme is that Bomba, because he is white, has a soul that is awake, while Bomba's friends, the dark-skinned natives, have souls that are sleeping. The second set of 10 books shift the scene to Africa, where a slightly older Bomba has jungle adventures
In 1949 the character was brought to the motion picture screen
In 1968 DC Comics produced a series of seven comics based on the character
