John Carter and Dejah Thoris finally return to majestic Helium, but they find the city strangely deserted. John and Dejah must find out what happened to its inhabitants, or suffer the same horrific fate! More amazing adventure in the tradition of Edgar Rice Burroughs, by the team of Ron Marz, Ian Edginton and Ariel Medel.
John Carter, Warlord of Mars brings us back to Helium and there's a lot going on here because of it. I like the overall flow of it and what it presents, but it also kind of annoys me a bit – perhaps a bit more so as a new reader. That said, it is a familiar tactic to use in storytelling of this nature so I'm not holding it against it in a big way. Marz continues to handle the cast well and I'm curious to see how I feel about it after this arc. Medel's artwork is once again strong in overall presentation and the flow of it. It may not go for big, splashy moments or anything, but it's a solid and polished approach that brings this world to life in a very good way. Read Full Review
