The third issue of Warlords, under Dynamite’s Elseworlds/What If?-style Altered States banner, brings Tarzan to Mars, joining fellow Edgar Rice Burroughs characters John Carter and Dejah Thoris, alongside Robert E. Howard’s Red Sonja.

There’s a mystical MacGuffin that the bad guys want, and the heroes are determined not to let them get their hands on it. That’s about the sum total of what’s going on here, with the appeal largely being the various pulp characters thrown together to team up and thwart the evil plans.

It’s all good, silly fun, and though each issue so far has featured another introduction and another fish out of water quickly adapting to the Red Planet, there’s still one more to come. So stay tuned to see the proper introduction of Vampirella to the story in issue 4!
