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, here drawn by Alan Weiss, Michael Kaluta, and Dan Green. 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.

  • 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, here 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, and 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.
