In Warlord of Mars #100, we begin with a story by Robert Napton (Warlord of Mars: Dejah Thoris), taking place 400 years before John Carter’s arrival on Barsoom, where a young Woola discovers an ancient first born artifact that isn’t quite what it seems. The story continues by Arvid Nelson (Warlord of Mars), as the artifact is recovered by the Warlord himself lots of years later.  What happens to the good people of Helium as the evil power begins to be unleashed? and what could it indicate for the rest of Barsoom?  Then, in the final chapter by mark Rahner (Dejah Thoris and the green men of Mars), Woola need to do the hardest thing of his life: not secure John Carter.  The fiercely devoted calot need to resist his strongest instincts to save Carter from horrifying brutality – or pay an infinitely worse price.

“Having been with Warlord of Mars from the very beginning, this issue has deep personal indicating for me,” says writer Arvid Nelson. “Our goal from the start was to capture the spirit of the original stories, but also make them easily accessible for a modern audience.  I’m pleased of what we accomplished.”

“It’s an fantastic milestone for Dynamite and the Warlord of Mars comics that we’ve reached our 100th issue,” states writer Robert place Napton.  “It’s a testament to the rich world Edgar Rice Burroughs created that we’ve come this far.  I can’t think of a better way to celebrate than throwing all the storytellers into the arena together and seeing what kind of mayhem ensues.  It must be fun!”
