A meh story.World: The art was on par with the series, the nipple armor still annoys me and the art is what it is, but overall it's rather poor in quality compared to the bigger publishers (it' not even Valiant level). The world building is interesting calling back on Burroughs' books for characters and adding to it for the story. It's small and self contained this time around making for a very straightforward and basic stage for the story.Story: We've read this story countless times and this is...
By far the best of these DEJAH THORIS installments, THE BOORA WITCH feels like classic Edgar Rice Burroughs from beginning to end. It's very rare to see Dynamite do such justice to their source material.
Originally Reviewed At: Mother/Gamer/WriterRating: 4.5 out of 5 ControllersReview Source: NetGalleyReviewer: MeIt’s no secret how much I adore the Warlord of Mars Series and lore created by Edgar Rice Burroughs. With that being said, I love the vast ways in which the stories of our beloved characters are being expanded upon in these graphic novels. And the stories of Dejah Thoris are no different. Our journey begins with Dejah and her crew of beefcakes – I mean team of strapping muscular men – l...
Eu entendo que Dejah Thoris não é o grande título dos quadrinhos atuais, mas algumas coisas soam como uma espécie de propagando enganosa, por exemplo: a Dejah não é feita prisioneira como a capa indica, nem o cara barbudo que aparece ao fundo da capa aparece nessa edição; essa capa faria mais sentido no volume anterior, mas enfim.É uma historinha bem meia boca.Dejah Thoris sai procurando por pedras num pântano mal assombrado e enfrenta a tal Bruxa Boora. De alguma maneira, a Bruxa Boora assume a...
Another good story about Princess Dejah Thoris with great art work. This time she gets possessed by a witch who tries to take over the twin cities of Helium by starting a war and using false accusations.The story is interesting and enjoyable. I am not fond of the self loathing ending, however it does lead into a new story arc.If you liked the previous trades of Dejah Thoris then you will like this. If you like the ideal human (martian) forms revealing a lot of skin art style then you will like t...
I'd say 3 and a half stars. Not quite as good as the previous two in the series but still enjoyable. There are actually two different tales, somewhat lightly connected in this collection. The Boora Witch is the first one. Dejah was certainly out of character in this one at times.
3.5 just because the last story did not made any sense and could have been omitted from the trade paperback.
Some of you may recall that I reviewed the first volume of an adult comic series called "Warlord of Mars," which was a retelling of Edgar Rice Burroughs's series based on "A Princess of Mars". The comic featured the start of the journey for hero John Carter, the Princess Dejah Thoris, friend and alien leader Tars Tarkas among others.Well, there's a spinoff series to that particular comic called "Warlord of Mars: Dejah Thoris" and it features the aforementioned heroine taking the reins of the adv...
Well blow me down, we actually got some character development in this volume.
Unlike the previous arcs, this one feels forced. Too many things happen just right for a villain before crumbling completely at the end simply because the good guys must win. The artwork seems more sketchy too.Dejah is leading an expedition into the Toonolian Marshes for construction materials. The area is dangerous because of the many deadly creatures that inhabit it. It gets worse when Dejah is being drawn into the marches by a mysterious voice only she can hear and that may lead to her demise...
You can find my full review over at The Founding Fields:http://thefoundingfields.com/2013/04/...And finally I come to the graphic novel that I definitely enjoyed the least (not quite, but close) last month. After reading this one, it became quite clear to me that if there is someone who can well and truly write Edgar Rice Burrough’s characters really well, it is Arvid Nelson, who worked on Warlord of Mars Vol.1, as well as the first two volumes of Warlord of Mars: Dejah Thoris. Robert Place Napt...
This continues to be a fun series. While leading a survey team, Dejah Thoris ends up captured by the titular Boora Witch, a hag who transfers her mind into Dejah Thoris' body (the Master Mind of Mars novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs has a similar mind transfer operation). Controlling Dejah Thoris during the night, the witch attempts to take control of the city of Helium and use her position to forge an even more expansive empire. The miniseries was fast-paced and compelling, with excellent artwork
