John Carter is a character created by Edgar Rice Burroughs for his Mars series of classic science fiction novels. Now in the public domain, the novels featuring John Carter have held my interest since I first read them in the mid-70s.
The initial novel, A Princess of Mars tells the story of John Carter, a Civil War veteran, who is teleported to Mars. There he is embroiled in tribal warfare between a race of red and green Martians. He meets and falls in love with the red Martian princess, Dejah Thoris, and befriends a green Martian warrior named Tars Tarkas.
Within this site are various drawings, concept pieces, and comic book thumbnails I have done in tribute. As I polish and finish material, I will post it here; I have also included various historical bits about the writing and universe in general, as well as links to the source material and sites devoted to Edgar RIce Burroughs.
