''Weird Worlds'' was an American science fiction anthology comic book series published by DC Comics: it ran from 1972 to 1974 for a total of 10 issues. The title's name was partially inspired by the sales success of ''Weird War Tales'' and ''Weird Western Tales''. ''Weird Worlds'' published series from Edgar Rice Burroughs that DC had obtained the licensing rights. This included the "John Carter of Mars" feature, by scripter Marv Wolfman and artist Murphy Anderson which moved over from ''Tarzan'' #209, and the "Pellucidar" feature from ''Korak, Son of Tarzan'' #46 drawn by Alan Weiss, Michael Kaluta, and Dan Green. These features ran until issue #7 (October 1973) until it became economically infeasible for DC to continue publishing so many adaptations of Burroughs' work. "John Carter" would re-appear in ''Tarzan Family'' #62-64 and "Pellucidar" in ''Tarzan Family'' #66. With issue #8, a new feature began: Dennis O'Neil and Howard Chaykin's Ironwolf, which ran through issue #10. The release of the last issue of ''Weird Worlds'' was delayed for several months due to a nationwide paper shortage. The title was relaunched in March 2011 and ran for six issues. It featured Lobo and two new characters: Aaron Lopresti's Garbage Man (a variant on Swamp Thing) and Kevin Maguire's Tanga. The characters appeared in the title ''My Greatest Adventure'' as part of The New 52 relaunch. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Weird Worlds (comics)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
