John Carter I: Mars Prensesi

The vivid world-building and imaginative setting make me wonder what sparked the idea to bring Mars to life in this way. Was it influenced by contemporary science or pure fantasy?

Their chemistry is iconic, but at times I wondered if the romance was a product of its era or intentionally playful. What did others think about their relationship dynamics?

Burroughs' depiction of Martian societies is fascinating, but some elements feel outdated or stereotypical now. Did anyone else notice this or see it differently?
