Soldier. Outcast. Husband. Hero. Award-winning author CHUCK BROWN (Bitter Root, Aquamen) and dynamic illustrator GEORGE KAMBADAIS (Firefly) present a bold sci-fi vision of a classic titan!
It is the year 1919. An asteroid of pure Ninth hurtles towards Earth. Its teeming power slowly melds the people of Earth to Mars, and Mars to Earth. John Carter is RIPPED from everything he knows, powerless and confused, suddenly in battle with Martian Apes...in Virginia.
Strap in for full-octane adventure every month...in JOHN CARTER OF MARS!
Even if this is your first time reading a John Carter story, John Carter of Mars #1 does a satisfactory job of filling readers in on the basics while teeing up more adventures to come. Read Full Review
JOHN CARTER OF MARS #1 is a disappointment. The writing is clunky, the dialog is stiff, and the scene transitions and overall plot flow read more like choppy rapids than a graceful stream. Combined with cartoonish art that doesnt suit the material at all, this first issue is a letdown. Read Full Review
The dialogue is off and the pacing is weird. Fantastic alternate cover though.
