I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

Cannot get more classic than this! Not a fan of the design, but great to see a new character being done.

Just took another look -- why is she shown with a gun? That's what I think the silver object is behind her, or looks a hell of a lot like one.

She doesn't use a gun. Her primary weapon is a sword.

From a February 1912 pulp. The first time John Carter sets eyes on Dejah Thoris...

And the sight which met my eyes was that of a slender, girlish figure, similar in every detail to the earthly women of my past life... Her face was oval and beautiful in the extreme, her every feature was finely chiseled and exquisite, her eyes large and lustrous and her head surmounted by a mass of coal black, waving hair, caught loosely into a strange yet becoming coiffure. Her skin was of a light reddish copper color, against which the crimson glow of her cheeks and the ruby of her beautifully molded lips shone with a strangely enhancing effect.

She was as destitute of clothes as the green Martians who accompanied her; indeed, save for her highly wrought ornaments she was entirely naked, nor could any apparel have enhanced the beauty of her perfect and symmetrical figure.

Love at first sight.

After I saw Star Wars (17 times in the theater that Summer) my life was changed forever. I wanted more. I found John Carter soon after and read every book in the series (I think there were something like 15 of them).

A Dejah Thoris statue was honestly a Bucket List project for me.

Cheers!
Will
