I read this after it was put up for Pick of the Week. I like Josh, never had any experience with John Carter, other than the want to see the new movie out. I was intrigued because this was Sam Humphries of Our Love is Real and Perez from Jim Henson’s Tale of Sand. Mix that with a light week, and I picked it up.

What a great surprise. The story reads somewhere between Conan meets Wonder Woman meets Planet Hulk meets Lord of the Rings meets Space. That is a lot, but one read and you will see it all! This was fun and add a final page reveal ending and sold!

But that only talks about the story, the art was something to fall into. It really helps tell the story. It pops. I want to see more of this. Unlike some people who you see their art in book after book and just looks the same, this is definitely new and something I want in my monthly stack.

Loved this!
