[Mikezilla3k]

A new animated series based on Edgar Rice Burroughs’ classic sci-fi novel series “John Carter of Mars” will be developed by the author’s estate and showrunner Michael Kogge, with the first sneak peek at the planned series to be revealed this Friday at a Burroughs-themed panel at San Diego Comic-Con.

“In this era of incredible animation, with shows like ‘Castlevania,’ ‘Blood of Zeus’ and ‘Twilight of the Gods’ pushing the genre of fantasy action-adventure to new heights, there couldn’t be a better time for the Martian saga of John Carter and Princess Dejah Thoris to be told through bold, ground-breaking animation,” he said in a statement.

Kogge is well-versed in all things “John Carter,” having written an audio series based on Burroughs’ novels that is currently being recorded with a cast that includes Sean Patrick Flannery, Bruce Boxleitner and “Star Wars” veteran Ian McDiarmid. He will be joined on the animated project by Jim Sullos and Wolf Larson, who will oversee for Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc.

“The explosive rise of action-adventure animation has captivated audiences around the world, making it the perfect moment to launch our John Carter animated series. This marks a new era in storytelling for the Edgar Rice Burroughs universe and we’re excited that Michael Kogge will help bring Mars to life,” said Sullos.
