Skeleton Men of Jupiter – Amazing Stories February 1943 ERB Cover

On an alien shoreline beneath a lurid pink and yellow sky, a muscular bare-chested warrior in a red loincloth clashes swords with an armored skeleton warrior — one of Edgar Rice Burroughs' fearsome Skeleton Men of Jupiter. The undead combatant, draped in purple cloth and bristling with blades, grins with hollow eye sockets as the hero lunges forward in desperate close-quarters combat. This is planetary romance at full throttle: savage, colorful, and utterly breathless.
