I don't remember this river, or any water, in the first book. I noticed a river in the trailer for the movie as well. I am I right or is my memory failing?

I think the canals were mentioned in passing, but nothing about crossing th e river or the monsters in it. I think JCB must have added in a little original material to keep the action moving.

I remember the canals as being dry and used as road ways. Anyway, this is certainly a departure in the story and perhaps a low point in the art work so far.

Hi Buda! Welcome to the boards. :wave:

I'll have an article on John Carter in the comics for the next issue of Comic Book Quarterly. Be sure to check it out.

I thought people might be interested in something other than a JCB version of John Carter. Here is something from Allen St. John, one of the greats of fantasy art.

Mixed-media on board
26 x 16.5 in.
