Great timing! A major human-ape ancestry find in the news just today!
Note from Chad: I found the cover of the copy of Tarzan and the Jewels of Opar that I read when I was a kid. Somehow, I fell in love with the woman in the deep background. Now, that’s imagination!
Also, I was wrong – in Alan Moore’s story “Allan and the Sundered Veil,” Randolph is John Carter’s grand-nephew, not his brother. I’m never talking about this story again, as this is the second time I’ve gotten the details wrong. Never!
