John Carter smashed the power of the Therns, the evil priests who enslaved Mars for thousands of years with their false religion. But Matai Shang, the Holy Father of their order, has found the perfect way to strike back - Dejah Thoris. Shang has kidnapped Carter's princess and is heading for a remote kingdom that still blindly clings to his discredited faith. Unfortunately for him, John Carter is hot on his trail! Tag along in Warlord of Mars #22: The Jungles of Kaol.
I enjoy watching Martians fight and ride around on eight-legged horses and this issue did nothing to abate that enjoyment. It was a quick, enjoyable read and made me regret not following the title more closely. If you enjoy watching Martians fight against and beside John Carter, than you should pick this up as well. Even if you don't keep reading it's worthing looking at and might induce you to follow it for a few issues. 3.5 stars. Read Full Review
As much asWarlord of Mars#22 struggles in places, it mostly stews in mediocrity, rather than plunging into the truly awful. It does have a few good aspects – a couple action scenes and some political machinations – but I'm largely disappointed that the book has suffered such a drop in quality. Read Full Review
