About the series
From 1964, Western Publishing brought Edgar Rice Burroughs' swashbuckling hero to comics in a three-issue series, with Jesse Marsh's distinctive, atmospheric artwork defining the look of Barsoom. Scripted primarily by Philip Evans and Paul Newman, these issues captured the pulp adventure of John Carter's Martian exploits. Though brief, the series stands as a key early attempt to translate the beloved novels into sequential art, preserving the classic science-fantasy tone for a new generation of readers.
