I can smell the 80s on this and it smells like a smoker’s house (I promise I mean it in a nonderogatory way, that describes my childhood home lol).
I can understand why people aren’t into the titty armor, but I respect putting it on both the men and the women.
lots of warriors opted out of armor and clothing, instead using the mobility and shields for protection.
I love Grecian gods of people dressed scantily fighting monsters. Its the best part of the 80s.
For real. Women, men, aliens, monsters, they're all practically naked. Equal opportunity impractical clothing.
Society has regressed so far😞
I grew up on Edgar Rice Burroughs, and this brings back a lot of memories! I had a paperback copy of this but it wasnt the same art. However, it had the same overall theme and feel.
If they're the editions I grew up with, it was Michael Whelan

Those are the ones I have too.
I found a few and can confirm, Michael Whelan
Me too, I had such high hopes for John Carter movie, but it was disappointing.
Yeah that was pretty terrible
I love this art style.

Needs to be painted on the side of an old windowless van
Boobs
Yeah that strap he has across the chest really gives them a nice lift.
10/10 would grope
Even the dudes nips are stealing a look at the princess cleavage.
This looks like it could have been the inspiration for He-Man
Clyde Cudwell or Clyde Caldwell?
