Yes indeed Kid, saw it, though I haven't seen the movie yet. My daughter wants to see it, so I'll prolly see that soon enough.
Much as I admire Anderson's work, and all the other great artists who have illuminated the Barsoomian saga, they still haven't come up to what I see in my mind's eye when I read the words written out by Edgar Rice Burroughs.
Then that's a subject for a future post, Thom - when you have the time. I haven't read the books, but I'd love to see your interpretations of the characters.

My name is Thom Buchanan.
I'm an artist and photographer.
People are my favorite subjects to portray in art and photos. My wife (and studio partner) has called that my 'people skills', as I've been passionately creating portrait studies for many years.
I refer to myself as a pictorialist, a combination of image-making and journalist. Images are my life.

Yes, yes, that would be lovely.
Murphy Anderson - great artist. Posted his John Carter story on my blog if you haven't already seen it.

Okay, Frazetta and Krenkel come close.
