They even claimed that they had trademarks which would prevent that. The threat of that forced IDW to drop their announced series of John Carter several years ago, but clearly they could revive it now if they wanted to. What isn't mentioned is that Dark Horse has extensive ERB comic book rights which at one time included John Carter, and which I had been told they were sitting on until the forthcoming movie would make a new comic more commercially appealing. I guess not. What’s interesting about this is that for a long time ERB Inc refused to admit that A Princess of Mars was public domain and anyone could do a comic book based on it.
