Dejah Thoris: An Outcast of Mars and Dejah Thoris Vol. 2: A Princess of Earth are two graphic novel collections published by Dynamite Entertainment adapting new stories set in Edgar Rice Burroughs’ Barsoom universe. The series positions Dejah Thoris as the lead rather than a supporting character, following her on adventures across Mars and Earth. The Dynamite comics reimagine Burroughs’ world with modern sensibilities while retaining the pulp science fantasy atmosphere of the original novels.

An Outcast of Mars (2020) follows Dejah in exile on Barsoom after political upheaval in Helium. A Princess of Earth (2023) takes the story to Earth itself. Both volumes draw on the rich mythology Burroughs established but do not require knowledge of the original novels. The series is distinct from the John Carter comics and focuses specifically on Dejah Thoris as an independent protagonist rather than as John Carter’s companion.
