Dejah Thoris vs. John Carter is a 2022 graphic novel collected edition from Dynamite Entertainment. The story takes two of Edgar Rice Burroughs’ most famous Barsoom characters and places them at odds with each other due to a political conflict that splits their loyalties. The book is a standalone story within the Dynamite Barsoom line, which has published multiple series featuring Dejah Thoris, John Carter, and other characters from Burroughs’ Mars novels.
The volume does not require readers to have followed earlier Dynamite Barsoom comics, though familiarity with the basic premise of Burroughs’ world (a dying Mars populated by feuding city-states, Green Martians, and Red Martians) helps contextualise the story. For readers who enjoyed Dynamite’s other Dejah Thoris titles, this serves as an expansion of that world with a more conflict-driven premise.
