Switch to Africa--when?[edit]

The intro for this article states that the Jungle Jim newspaper strip was set in Southeastern Asia, rather than the more commonly used jungle locale of Africa. I must admit that I've never seen samples of the strip itself or the subsequent comic books, or heard any episodes of the radio series, or seen so much as a clip of the 1937 Universal serial, but I grew up with the Johnny Weismuller movies and, to a lesser extent, his TV version. These were set in Africa. At the same time, Monogram made several Bomba, the Jungle Boy movies, relocating the property from the original pulp stories' Amazon jungle to Africa, because Monogram had much stock footage available (well, that's what a book on B-movies that I read a couple of decades ago said, identifying a specific film as the source of the footage, but I see in Bomba's Wiki article that the original pulp stories had already made the shift years earlier). Is this what happened here, or did any of the prior adaptations also "Africanize" the character? The article should reflect this shift, when and wherever it occurred.
