"Animal Mystic" is a comic book by Greg "Dark One" Williams that debued in 1993. Early issues were co-written by publisher Robb Horan. Series was published first by Cry For Dawn and then Sirius Entertainment. Heroine Nikki Ranoakke, the Animal Mystic, protects her jungle home. She later visits the underwater city of Marinopolis and outer space. Although Ranoakke begins the story as human, she eventually acquires cat-like ears and a tail.

Roanoakke has a boyfriend when first seen, but eventually falls in love with a white tiger-lady named Ryntha.

ources and inspirations

Animal Mystic may be inspired by the 1978 cartoon series Jana of the Jungle, which shares several similarities:Fact|date=September 2007
*Beautiful white woman with long blond hair wears a skimpy leather outift, speaks with animals, and protects her jungle home from poachers and other threats (Jatarri/Jana). Both end up in the jungle due to their now-dead fathers, thus providing some drama.
*Heroine is assisted by a giant white jungle cat (Ghost the albino jaguar/Mingus the white tiger).
*Heroine is assisted by a large, fierce native man who carries a feather-decorated wooden staff (Montaro/Klor the centaur)
*Jana and Jatarri both meet a tribe of jungle amazons who force them into life-or-death competitions.The name Jatarri may be derived from Jana + Atari. Fact|date=September 2007 When Jana was on television in 1978, the most popular video game console was the Atari. The console name Atari is borrowed from the East Asian board game Go; to say a Go stone is "in atari" means that it has a dangerous vulnerability.

Dark One's art often uses design motifs borrowed from coral and tropical fish, an idea popularized by brothers Roger and Martyn Dean.
