| | The Holloway Pages: Pulp Heroes: John Carter of Mars (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23) |
 | | Arriving naked and unarmed on Mars, John Carter was soon taken captive by the Tharks, a tribe of the tall, four-armed, nomadic and warrior-like Green Men of Mars. |
 | | Life on the dying planet of Mars, or Barsoom as it was known to its inhabitants, was often harsh, with war, assassination, and violence a continual state of affairs. |
 | | Under the hurtling twin moons of Mars, over the desiccated beds of long-dead seas, through the crumbling ruins of once great cities, and in the crowded streets of warring city-states, the story of John Carter, his family and friends was vividly reported by Burroughs in the pages of the pulp magazines. |
