Theagenes Posted February 15, 2012 Author Share Posted February 15, 2012 I just finished reading the 73 John Carter Sunday tear sheets from December, 1941, through April, 1943, and found it interesting that p.73 corresponded with p.31 of the John Carter story in The Funnies. I assume that means that all pages after p.31 represent original art drawn for The Funnies, which might account for some difference in appearance after p.31 as Burroughs now had deadlnes to meet. That's a great point, Rich. That might explain it. (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yellow Kid Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 At Sam's Club yesterday, they had a stack of the new John Carter book from Disney. With a bright orange cover, you can't miss it. Only $6.95 for hundreds of pages of the movie story, photographs in the middle, and a reprint of an original ERB story. Given today's prices, this was a steal!

Has this series of comics that Theagenes has been so gracious to post, ever been compiled and published in a book? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theagenes Posted February 16, 2012 Author Share Posted February 16, 2012 Has this series of comics that Theagenes has been so gracious to post, ever been compiled and published in a book? JR, the individual panels for Funnies 30-39 were used as the illustrations (in B&W) for the Dell Fast Action Story (BZ and Comic-and-ERB posted interior and exterior pics earlier). The newspaper strip has been reprinted a couple of times in B&W---once in the 70's by Burroughs, Inc. and once by Dark Horse in the 90's as a back-up feature in Tarzan: The Lost Adventure. But that's it for the Funnies version---they've never been collected in book form before. Though I've heard rumors of a limited unauthorized collected edition being circulated privately.

Yellow Kid Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Thanks for all your work, Jeff, as John Carter starts my day in style. My only regret is that I know there is going to be an end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
