Warlord of Mars #3 
Covers: J. Scott Campbell (50%), Joe Jusko (50%), Lucio Parrillo (1-in-15), Patrick Berkenkotter (1-in-10) 
Writer: Arvid Nelson

Penciller/Inker: Lui Antonio

We -- and John Carter -- dive into this issue head-first. At long last he arrives on Mars and meets the green Martian warrior Tars Tarkas. Carter butts heads with the brutal greens pretty quickly, but he's got an edge on them -- Mars's weaker gravity means he's got superhuman strength. Who said you can't beat the truth into somebody?

[rating:4/5]
