The Wall Street Journal reports that Edgar Rice Burroughs Inc, a company set up by Edgar Rice Burroughs and financially benefitting his descendants, is suing Dynamite and Dynamic Forces over their publication of Lord Of The Jungle and Warlord Of Mars comics, over trademark and copyright issues involving Tarzan and John Carter Of Mars.
If it's a real outrage by the estate-holders, it's silly.
The character (Dejah Thoris) has been drawn exactly the same way since I first saw her in TARZAN and WEIRD WORLDS for DC (1972), and JOHN CARTER WARLORD OF MARS for Marvel (1975-1977).
She was thong-bikini-clad then, she's thong-bikini-clad now.
I loved it then, I love it now!
I suspect it's all just a stunt to draw attention. Whether that is the intention or not, I'm sure Dynamite will sell a lot more copies as a result.
