Captain John Carter finds himself on a strange new world. Encountering creatures such as the Mars warrior race the Tharks and the great white apes of Barsoom, Carter must fight for his very life - and for the heart of a princess. Edgar Rice Burroughs' legendary novels come to life in this action packed, all new re-envisioned adventure.

The writing is reasonably capable, although I was a little put off by the implicit comparisons of Than Kosis to Saddam Hussein. Carter refers to deposing him as "regime change," and there is a panel of the Zodangan people pulling down the statue of Than Kosis with his right arm outstretched just like this.
The art by Filipe Andrade was deeply unsatisfying to me. As in the Disney movie, Dejah Thoris wears entirely too much clothing. All of the human and Red Martian physiques are impressionistically ropy, and the faces are distorted in stylized ways that make them look as alien as the Tharks.
Overall, I found this version inferior to the bulk of the current Barsoom comics from Dynamite.
ETA: The "John Carter (TM)" super-title creates the odd effect of suggesting that Captain Carter is himself "a princess of Mars"!
