Warlord of Mars: Dejah Thoris

Set on a war-torn Barsoom, this Dynamite series from 2011–2015 spotlights the fierce princess Dejah Thoris in her own solo adventures, long before she meets John Carter. Written primarily by Robert Place Napton and Arvid Nelson, with lush, cinematic art from Carlos Rafael, Paul Renaud, and Jay Anacleto, the seven-issue run expands the lore of Edgar Rice Burroughs' Martian world through her eyes. It stands as a key entry in Dynamite's Warlord of Mars line, giving one of science fiction's iconic heroines the spotlight she deserves.
