The fate of Mars hangs in the balance as John Carter and Dejah Thoris race to revive the planet's dying atmosphere. Standing in their way are killer robots, savage Tharks and villains of all stripes.

While I'm not chomping at the bit to pick up earlier issues in this run, my second issue exposure to the property after years away has me interested in continuing on with it. This was a fairly fun diversion storyline that could be expanded upon and it has a certain kind of grand fun about it as it builds a larger historical backdrop. I liked the interplay between Carter and Thoris for a lot of it and some of the banter as there's a naturalness about it. I have no clue what's next, of course, but this was fun. Medel's artwork is a big selling point for it though as he really brings the dynamic alive and captures the flow of it really well with the panel layouts and the designs for both character and backgrounds to make it feel lived in.
