The two men stalled until it was dark, and pretending to kill John Carter, Kantos Kan earned his freedom and Carter escaped.Īfter escaping from the Atmosphere factory, John Carter met his old friend, Tars Tarkas whilst in the Martian wastes. During his time with them, he met the red man Kantos Kan and the two were forced to fight each other. John Carter was captured by the Warhoons and forced to fight in the savage horde's Great Games. Soon, John Carter was apprehended by the horde of warhoon, but not before giving them a fight. It was also during this time that Carter earned the name Dotar Sojat, a combination of the surnames of two Tharkian warrior chieftains he killed in honorable combat.Īfter a time with the Tharks, John Carter found himself needing to escape with the princess Dejah Thoris, the two joined with the Thark Sola escaped the city of Thark and found themselves lost. During his time with the Tharks a fleet of fliers was attacked, the Tharks managed to make a prisoner of one of the fleets human passengers - the princess of Helium, Dejah Thoris. Carter also taught Tharks to respect their animals (animal cruelty was rampant before) and made a friend with the pet Woola. Amongst the Tharks, he learned the language of the planet, and developed telepathic abilities while gaining their trust. Soon he was captured by the Tharks, who were greatly impressed with his abilities. Finding nobody within sight he found his way to a small structure which he discovered was an incubator, this incubator held the hatching green Martian eggs. Soon after arriving upon Mars John Carter discovered his increased strength and agility. He broke free, and he inexplicably split from his body, as he left the cave he stared into the heavens seeing the red star that is Mars and feeling its calling he was mysteriously transported from Earth to Mars. In an effort to save the man John Carter found himself chased into a cave where he was inexplicably paralyzed (possibly by the fumes in the cave), fearing for his life he desperately tried to escape being completely unable to move his body. Powell was abducted and killed by the native Apache peoples. While in the Arizona desert, John Carter's companion James K. In an attempt to regain his fortune he traveled to Arizona to search of gold with the aid another Confederate officer James K. When the American Civil War ended he found himself with only a captain's commission in an army that no longer existed and several hundred thousand dollars (Confederate).
He has always been a warrior with a strong sense of duty, which may account for the honors bestowed upon him by three republics and the decorations and friendships of an old and powerful emperor and several lesser kings, in whose service his sword has been red many a time. As far as he knows he has always been a man of about thirty, and remembers no childhood. John Carter's history before his advent on Barsoom is mostly a mystery, even to himself.
