A fortuitous lightning bolt delivered him from death and to Mars, similar to the mysterious conveyance of John Carter to Mars shortly after the Civil War. After Tarzan defeated a Banth, a frightening, six-legged toothy beast, the ruthless but beautiful pirate queen, Purid Mos decided the Lord of the Apes is exactly who she needs to conquer her hated enemy John Carter. Based on the characters and settings of Edgar Rice Burroughs. Story/Spoilers: In issue #1, "Red Awakenings!", Tarzan of the Apes has fought every manner of man and beast. He has seen every kind of jungle -- from the darkest rain forests of Africa to the concrete jungle of New York -- and faced every kind of horror those diverse landscapes have to offer. But nothing has prepared him for the savage creatures that now surround him, when the Lord of the Jungle finds himself mysteriously transported to the planet Mars! Next in issue #2, "Storm Winds of Mars", Earth is only a distant memory to John Carter, a memory he wants to keep distant. Mars is savage and brutal, but far more honest than the blue planet he left behind. If Carter allows Tarzan to return to his home planet, it could lead to an earthly invasion of Barsoom . . . an invasion which Carter fears his adopted home would be hard pressed to stave off. So, to ensure he never has to see Mars compromised by humans, Carter will see that Tarzan is buried six-feet under its surface. Next in issue #3, "Prisoners in Darkness", Tarzan's thoughts blaze with a single thought: find John Carter and kill him! But Tarzan's murderous fixation comes not from within, but instead from the hypnotic powers of the beautiful and deadly Martian assassin Purid-Mos. Should Tarzan succeed in killing the earthman John Carter, he will also destroy his only chance of returning to earth! Finally, in issue #4, "Farewell to Mars", Earth is only a distant memory to John Carter, a memory he wants to keep distant. Mars is savage and brutal, but far more honest than the blue planet he left behind. If Carter allows Tarzan to return to his home planet, it could lead to an earthly invasion of Barsoom . . . an invasion which Carter fears his adopted home would be hard pressed to stave off. So, to ensure he never has to see Mars compromised by humans, Carter will see that Tarzan is buried six-feet under its surface.
