Secret Wars: Breaking Down The 40 Regions Of Battleworld
29. New Mars
Another one which is more open for speculation is this previously undiscovered country. There have been all sorts of theories as to what exactly resides in New Mars. Could it be a shout out to classic pulp character (who, crucially, exists in the public domain) John Carter, recently brought to the big screen by Disney in the flop of the century? Might it have something to do with the Garden Of Eden created on Mars at the start of Jonathan Hickman's run on Avengers? Or it might not be anything of the sort. The location for New Mars isn't actually on the map, so it could just be...well, regular old Mars. Fingers crossed for Biker Mice, though.
