The mini-series were a resounding success.
Never one to let a great concept go to waste, various comic book
companies attempted to duplicate Moore’s success.
Unfortunately none were able to recreate the magic of such a concept-until
now.
Dynamite Entertainment
and writer Bill Willingham and artist Cezar Rezak present 'The Greatest
Adventure #1’, that combine the characters created by Edgar Rice Burroughs.
Join John Carter, Jason Gridley, Tarzan, Dejah Thoris, Korak, Jane Porter
and over a dozen other literary figures as they team to thwart a would-be world
conqueror.
Things start out with a bang when an alien spacecraft crash-lands in Tarzan’s
domain.
Rushing to the crash site Tarzan rescues the pilot, Jason Gridley, who escaped
from a madman who plans on using his Gridley’s Gridley Wave device to conquer worlds.
Fortunately Gridley escaped in a desperate attempt to gather others to help
him stop the madman.
Together he and Tarzan gather heroes from around the globe to pilot their
own spacecraft to stop the threat.
I don’t want to give too much away other than to say that the story had
me hooked from the first panel and kept me glued to its pages through the issue.
