John Carter (of Mars)

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

I don't have an opinion about this yet.

Interesting. But I'm pretty sure all the people on mars are supposed to be naked.

Edited to add: yup, I remembered correctly!

Clothing
The Martians wear no clothing other than jewelry and leather harnesses, which are designed to hold everything from the weaponry of a warrior to pouches containing toiletries and other useful items; the only instances where Barsoomians habitually wear clothing is for need of warmth, such as for travel in the northern polar regions described in The Warlord of Mars.
This preference for near-nudity provides a stimulating subject for illustrators of the stories, though art for many mass-market editions of the books feature Carter and native Barsoomians wearing loincloths and other minimal coverings, or use strategically placed shadows and such to cover genitalia and female breasts.
