VICTORY OVER JUPITER

(A brief sequel to "Skeleton Men of Jupiter," by John Martin)

First Appeared ERB-APA #45


As my stolen Morgor ship touched down at Zanor, I saw a fair maiden running towards my craft. Eagerly I leaped from the ship as my incomparable Dejah Thoris ran toward me with buds of Sasoomian roses in her hair and kisses on her mouth.

After spending a few days resting up and making plans, I, along with Dejah, U Dan, Vaja, Zan Dar and Vorion, headed back to the Morgor capitol in our ship, activating the invisibility device as we approached the city limits.

By this time I was getting tired of years and years of having my wife kidnapped and spending time in dungeons, so we used extreme care and caution and quickly found and took over a Morgor ship capable of space travel. We blasted off before the Morgors realized what was happening and though they pursued us they could not overtake us and 18 days later we were on Mars again.

I immediately warned Tardos Mors and the other jeddaks about the Morgor threat and, when they finally attacked, we were ready for them and blasted them out of the sky.
