John Carter and The Martian Manhunter

 

Here's a long overdue revisit.  J'onn J'onzz first encountered John Carter way back in STF #38, over a decade ago when this was still an MS Paint blog.  the John Carter movie may never get a sequel, but there's no reason that this tale shouldn't!

  1. Wonder if they still have green and the white Martians there?

  2. I'm wondering if Mars is under attack-ack-ack-ack from those bulbous-brained Slim Whitman haters?

  3. Big Daddy Mars (from John Carpenter's GHOSTS OF MARS): "Oooby-shooby-dooby-doo!"

    Eng. translasion: "Hey! I resemble that remark."

  4. One of these times, Ross, one of your 100-page specials should be an all-Mars epic: John Carter, J'Onn J'Onzz, Mars Attacks, Marvin the Martian, and perhaps even "Uncle Martin" (My Favorite Martian).

  5. Doom on Barsoom! That's a great title! Also, wouldn't mind seeing a head-to-head battle with Dr. Doom vs. Martian Manhunter!

  12. Wasn't one of Chris KL-99's sidekicks a Martian? I think he should team up with John Carter next.

    Jemm (Son Of Saturn) would also be a good DC choice somewhere down the line for John Carter.

  13. That would make him Jemm, son of Xasoom, wouldn't it?
