Maurice Whitman penned and inked the rather attractive (if you are into green) Martian woman named Ylla. Her name was borrowed from the “Ylla” in Ray Bradbury’s The Martian Chronicles.
Mars stories were popularized starting way back in 1912 with Edgar Rice Burroughs‘ Barsoom stories featuring John Carter of Mars.
In this pulp-like comic John Hunter of the Marsmen was published by Fiction House in 1953. The main inside story was penciled and inked by another Maurice (Gutwirth). The the rest of the stories are made up of old Planet Comics reprints.
