Description
I say this a lot about being a “big fan of things“ but I really am!
Case in point i really love the john carter of mars books and the depiction of them by frank frazetta. Even though the books were mostly strip mined for ideas by like a billion more recognizable works (Avatar, Star Wars, Star Trek, Superman, etc) to the point that the original work seems cliche, there’s still quite a lot to love for a guy who never really grew up.
What guy wouldn’t want to be John Carter who travels between planets, gains powers, fights aliens, and wins the heart of a beautiful mostly naked princess?
So I drew this bit of Dejah Thoris overlooking the kingdom of Helium awaiting John to “return home“ where he belongs.
Also Ray Bradbury and Carl Sagan are huge fans of the work. Listen to sagan nerd out on the books.
