Warlord of Mars (Comic Book) | comment |
Warlord of Mars is the comic book adaptation of Edgar Rice Burroughs' John Carter of Mars book series, published by Dynamite Comics since October 2010. The comics told the story of Civil War veteran John Carter who ends up being mystically transported to the red planet of Mars. Not only is there sentient life in Barsoom (as Mars is called by its inhabitants), he discovers he is stronger and faster because of the planet's lighter gravity rendering his body much hardier. In this bizarre new world, Carter faces many adventures, falls in love with a beautiful Red Martian princess and faces arduous battles to win her hand and protect her, as well as his adoptive world.The comics were notoriously faithful to its source material and among the most popular among Dynamite readers, given the time the first volume ran and the sheer number of spin-offs created from it. This was, in spite of an lawsuit that happened in the early 2012 when Edgar Rice Burroughs Inc., the family-owned company of John Carter's creator sued the publisher over trademark infringement, though the matters were amicably settled in 2014. Unusually, the lawsuit did very little to affect the comic's publishing over the course of its run, and after the issue was resolved, Dynamite and the ERB estate have worked together to relaunch the series in that same year.The comics also created plenty of original content about the Barsoom mythos, most of which focusing on Carter's love interest Dejah Thoris, who received several spin-offs surrounding her as one can see in the list below, and became one of Dynamite's flagship characters, perhaps more so than the actual protagonist. The Barsoom comics are as follows. List of Publications Warlord of Mars (2010-2014) - Regular series. Adapted the first three books in the Barsoom series: A Princess of Mars, The Gods of Mars and Warlord of Mars. Lasted for 35 issues. Warlord of Mars: Dejah Thoris (2011-2013) - Regular series that ran for 35 issues, served as a prequel detailing Dejah's life 400 years before she met Carter. Warlord of Mars: Fall of Barsoom (2011) - 5-issue long miniseries that took place in the distant past of Barsoom detailing the fall of its ancient civilization. Dejah Thoris and the White Apes of Mars (2012) - Limited miniseries taking place between Princess and Gods. Dejah Thoris and the Green Men of Mars (2013-2014) - Originally scheduled as a 6-issue miniseries, it was prolonged to a 12-issues long. Warriors of Mars (2012) - 5 issue long crossover with Gullivar of Mars Lords of Mars (2013-2014) - 6 issue long crossover with Tarzan Dejah of Mars (2014) 5 issue miniseries focusing on Dejah in her quest to rescue John who has been captured. John Carter: Warlord of Mars (2014-2015) - A relaunched regular series, published in the aftermath of ERB Inc.'s lawsuit and made with their approval that ran for 14 issues. Dejah Thoris (2016) - Originally intended as a regular series focusing on Dejah, it was cancelled at 6 issues. A second volume was made in 2018, which is another prequel set before John Carter's arrival on Barsoom and a third volume began publication in 2019. Swords of Sorrow (2015) - A Crisis Crossover featuring Dejah, Red Sonja and Vampirella. Pathfinder: Worldscape (2016) - A Massive Multiplayer Crossover featuring other licensed characters from Dynamite such as the main cast in Pathfinder, Tarzan, Red Sonja as well as characters from public domain. John Carter: The End (2017) - A series that takes place in a possible future showing an aged John and Dejah living in exile after a tyrant has overthrown them and they are both grieving over their son's death. But something happens that brings them back into action. Vampirella/Dejah Thoris (2018) - A Crisis Crossover between the two title heroines. Dejah teams up with Vampirella, who crash-lands on Barsoom following the ecological disaster that dried up the rivers of blood which lead to several Drakulonians fleeing their planet and becoming deranged with thirst for blood. Unfortunately, hundreds of them are directed to Barsoom and the two must find a way to save the planet from the bloodfiends. Warlord of Mars Attacks (2019) - A crossover setting John and Dejah against the aliens from Mars Attacks! who are invading Barsoom. Barbarella/Dejah Thoris (2019) - A team up between the titular heroines to solve a murder case. | |

Darker and Edgier: For the most part, some of the comics emulated the Planetary Romance aspect from the books. Later miniseries like Green Men of Mars are much more darker and grimmer featuring Torture Porn and conspiracies. The main characters are also made much more violent and ruthless. | |

Warlord of Mars (Comic Book) / int_1b5fa24a | comment |
Thurid (a First-Born), Matai Shang (a Thern) and Salensus Oll (a Okarian) all become madly attracted to Dejah, once again. To the point, they will kill each other over who gets her for themselves. What makes this particularly egregious is that their races are very xenophobic and supremacist that regard Red People as lesser savages, and in their particular case, it's more like one-sided perverse lust than genuine romance. | |

Adaptational Villainy: The Yellow Martians who assist John Carter in Warlord of Mars. In both the comics and the books, they assist Carter into infiltrating Salensus Oll's city and they take control of it after his death. In the following story arc in the comics, it's revealed that they have aspirations of conquest, conspiring to turn the Green Martians against the rest of the Barsoomians and breed a race of mutant servants to take over the planet. Tardos Mors is the proud, virtuous and benevolent Jeddak of Helium... Until Tyrant of Mars rolls out, where he turns into a Evil Overlord bent on an genocidal campaign against the polar races of Barsoom after he comes back to life. Subverted when it's revealed that is actually a double created by a evil White Martian spirit and the real Tardos is dead. Ras Thavas, who was a merely morally ambiguous in Synthetic Men of Mars but reforms at the end of the book, is made into an villain that planned to clone Dejah and John and replace them with his creations so he could rule Helium through his puppets. | |

The first two issues in Vol. 1 shows Tars Tarkas' backstory intertwined with John finding his way to Mars. It's revealed that the Green Martians were created by the Okarans as battle drones through interbreeding between apts, white apes and Red Martians and they could be controlled mentally by their creators. | |

He reveals rebelled against him in the first place because the Yellow Martians are destined to rule all of Barsoom, not to say hidden from the rest of the world like Oll wanted..

Warlord of Mars (Comic Book) / int_362461f6 | comment |
Sex Slave: In the first book of Dejah Thoris and the Green Men of Mars, Dejah mentioned that the Green Men rape and eventually kill and eat Red Martian women that they capture. The more humanoid races aren't any better in how they treat the Red Martian women, Thuvia starts off as a sex slave for the White Martians and would likely have eaten her if they got tired of her. She is also nearly turned into Oll's concubine alongside Dejah and Phaidor, but they saved themselves. | |

Death by Adaptation: Dejah's father and grandfather die offscreen while rebelling against the Yellow Martians. In the books, they survive and return to Helium safely. Subverted when Tardos Mors apparently returns to live, but it's Double Subverted when revealed that it was merely a copy. Matai Shang dies in the comics much earlier at the hands of Salensus Oll whereas in the books, he is offed by Thurid instead. The Big Bad in Skeleton Men of Jupiter was a Karma Houdini as a result of Died During Production, but he dies in one special issue that more or less serves as sequel/conclusion to the book. | |

Defied, when Carter suggests to a White Martian if his people have settled on Earth and interbred with the Scandinavians, who are commonly blonde-haired and blue eyed, which would explain the physical similarities between the two people. Said White Martian is freaked out by this and considers it akin to bestiality. | |

Royal Harem: Salensus Oll has one with fourteen concubines and adds Dejah, Thuvia and Phaidor to them. Said harem would later play an important part as witnesses of a conspiracy to destroy the Green People during Savage of Mars. | |

Warlord of Mars (Comic Book) / int_603f1a80 | comment |
Pragmatic Adaptation: Inevitably... In the books, John takes a painfully long time to realize Carthoris is his son. In the comics, they recognize each other almost immediately. Both male and female characters are described to be nude with only leather harnesses and jewelry to cover them. The comic avoids having to drawn any genitalia by having them wear a little bit of clothing. | |

Something Only They Would Say: When Tardos Mors mysteriously returns to Helium after having died in Okar, he recounts an riding incident that Dejah had as a child that only they remember, confirming his identity. Turns out that is not truly Tardos, but an very ancient, very evil Orovar spirit that took his appearance and was able to pick up her thoughts while imprisoned. | |

He Knows Too Much: The conspirators in Savage of Mars took extreme measures to silence Salensus Oll's concubines after one of them blew the whistle about who was behind the Green People's violent bursts. In fact, had her not warned the heroes about it, they would likely never had figured it out. | |

Noble Demon | |
Warlord of Mars (Comic Book) / int_7360a6b6 | comment |
Noble Demon: Joshua Clark differs from many previous villains, that while a ruthless man driven by revenge, he has a wicked sense of honor; he is willing to show mercy to Dejah if she tells where is her husband, and not once tries to force himself on her. While he orders her execution when she attempts to escape and is unwilling to comply, he clearly laments being forced to do so. In the final duel between him an Carter, he declares that if Carter wins, then Clark's armada will abandon Barsoom's conquest and leave their world alone. Lord Andalust, the vampire man from Saturn, is one of the few villains to fall in love with Dejah and redeems himself in the process. | |

She also had much increased focus in the comics than she does in the books, as she faded into the background in later installments after the first one. | |

Interspecies Romance | |
Warlord of Mars (Comic Book) / int_8485d41a | comment |
Interspecies Romance: Not just between John Carter and Dejah Thoris, but the comics contains other original examples: Her mother Heru had a brief, ill-fated love story with Earthman Gullivar Jones. In Green Men of Mars, there is a marriage between a male Thark and a female Red Martian. Dagur Andalust (a Vathek) falls in love with Dejah (a Red Martian) and offers to make her his vampire bride. Unlike most villains, he sacrifices himself to destroy his fellow Vathek and save her. Carthoris (a human/Red Martian hybrid) has a few Ship Tease moments with Linea (a First-Born princess). Even his father encourages the relationship pursuit, despite their peoples being recently at war, possibly to secure peace between them. Sadly, they don't go farther than this with Linea's death. Thurid (a First-Born), Matai Shang (a Thern) and Salensus Oll (a Okarian) all become madly attracted to Dejah, once again. To the point, they will kill each other over who gets her for themselves. What makes this particularly egregious is that their races are very xenophobic and supremacist that regard Red People as lesser savages, and in their particular case, it's more like one-sided perverse lust than genuine romance. Oll himself decides to make not just Dejah, but Thuvia (a Red Martian herself) and Phaidor (a Thern) his concubines too. Bad mistake as this ends up putting the women in a position to kill him while he is destracted. Defied, when Carter suggests to a White Martian if his people have settled on Earth and interbred with the Scandinavians, who are commonly blonde-haired and blue eyed, which would explain the physical similarities between the two people. Said White Martian is freaked out by this and considers it akin to bestiality. | |

Karmic Death: Salensus Oll takes fancy to the female entourage of Matai Shang and arbitrarily declares they shall becomes his concubines and personally executed Shang for protesting. When Helium's fleet arrives, he has the women chained as his playthings, and after an explosion in the control room, they take the opportunity to gang up on him and shiv him to death with knives taken from his very belt. For extra karma, one of the women, Phaidor was Shang's daughter, and promptly avenged her father's death and her own humiliation by killing her captor. Vush Tanzar sells out Helium, and by extension Barsoom, to alien invaders out to of pure jealousy for Dejah choosing Carter over him. She is the one to kill him by pushing him off a ship after the Kahori invasion is twarted. The conspirator behind Savages of Mars Talu is executed in cold blood by Tars Tarkas after he horribly tortured the Thark warrior and threatened to destroy his people. | |

Sunlight is lethal to them, so they live in a land of perpetual darkness where the sky is covered with dark clouds and fumes. The Vampirella crossover features the Drakulonians, who are different from the Vathek since they can shapeshift, can walk under daylight and subside blood that runs like water in their planet. | |

After her death at the hands of the First-Born and the Okarans and having his own consciousness trapped inside crystals that kept him alive for thousands of years, he grew absolutely heartless and cruel. While masquerading as Tardos Mors, he replaces John Carter as Warlord of Mars, employs the vicious Warhoons as his enforcers, instigates a genocidal campaign against not only the Black and Yellow Peoples, but his own people as well, reducing them to slaves whom he has 10% killed for no good reason, except spite and disgust. He still thinks himself as a savior, however, as he justify his actions as liberating the Red and Green Peoples who have been oppressed by polar races for millenia. | |

DoubleSubverted | |
Warlord of Mars (Comic Book) / int_cd8ca67a | comment |
Dejah's father and grandfather die offscreen while rebelling against the Yellow Martians. In the books, they survive and return to Helium safely. Subverted when Tardos Mors apparently returns to live, but it's Double Subverted when revealed that it was merely a copy. | |

Depending on the Artist: Several story arcs shift artists very frequently, sometimes between issues in the same arc. The change can be very jarring to say the least. | |

A God Am I | |
Warlord of Mars (Comic Book) / int_dc1761bd | comment |
The White and the Black Martians suffer a bad case of A God Am I and Master Race and prey on both Red and Green Martians, relying on slavery of these lesser people for nearly everything, except warfare. Even the Therns themselves are preyed upon by the First-Born, who regularly raid their lands and kidnap their women. | |

Martian women are shown to be very alluring, beautiful and minimally dressed. Issus, on the other hand, is not only depicted as gaunt and wizened◊, but also dressed just like them. Yikes. | |

Standard Female Grab Area | |
Warlord of Mars (Comic Book) / int_e192c0a7 | comment |
Standard Female Grab Area: Played straight normally where Martian nudity is treated as a non-issue and enemies have a sense of gallantry, but averted in Dejah Thoris and the Green Men of Mars. The mini-series ups the fan service by often having the Green Martians grabbing the near-naked Dejah Thoris just under the breasts to force her into a kneeling position and in one case a Green Martian holds onto her butt. | |

Warlord of Mars (Comic Book) / int_e4d9e13b | comment |
Mars Needs Women: Subverted in the Barbarella/Dejah Thoris crossover where the two are grabbed by a giant tentacled monster and Dejah immediately fears that it will turns them into brood mothers. Not only is the monster revealed to be friendly, but Barbarella says they don't have the required reproductory system for that. | |

Warlord of Mars (Comic Book) / int_e5d8460d | comment |
Unexplained Recovery: Tardos Mors returns to life without any explanation inside the Red Spire of Helium, while he was thought to have died far away in the North Pole. Turns out that is a double created by the White Martian spirit Xerius to take control of Barsoom. This trope is played yet again straight when Tardos is seen alive again in Dejah of Mars, despite the one we saw previously was confirmed to be a copy and the real one died long ago. | |

Crossover | |
Warlord of Mars (Comic Book) / int_eb6da8ef | comment |
Crossover: Lords of Mars is one between Carter and Tarzan. Warriors of Mars is one where he meets Lieutenant Gullivar Jones. Swords of Sorrow is an all-female encounter focusing on Dejah Thoris, Red Sonja and Vampirella. Pathfinder: Worldscape is probably the largest one with Dynamite-licensed properties with aforementioned Tarzan and Sonja, as well as the main cast in Pathfinder and several public domain characters. Vampirella/Dejah Thoris, a Broad Strokes crossover that glosses over the aforementioned Swords of Sorrow. | |

Warlord of Mars (Comic Book) / int_f2fe5ff8 | comment |
Master Race: The polar races on Mars regard themselves as superior to the Red People and the Green barbarians, as well as among themselves. Irony is that the White, Black and Yellow people are heavily reliant on enslaving these lesser people, who are most numerous, advanced and much more prepared to live on Barsoom. When the Red People go to war against them, the polar races are usually overwhelmed. | |

Never Found the Body: We only hear word that Mors Kajak and Tardos Mors (Dejah's father and grandfather respectively) have been killed during a slave uprising, but their deaths were never shown onscreen. Though the later mysteriously returns to life, it's later discovered a skull which might have belonged to the true Tardos, due to a diamond teeth he had in life, indicating that the real one is truly dead. | |

Alien Invasion: Some took place - the second series opens up with Mars being invaded by aliens lead by an human just like Carter. Dejah Thoris prequel has her thwarting an attempted invasion by vampire aliens from Saturn. And at least in one possible Bad Future, this trope is inverted when Mars is invaded by Earth forces. | |
