Planet Stories March, 1951 issue. Cover by Allen Anderson.
The cover story, Black Amazon of Mars by Leigh Brackett, was an Eric John Stark episode, his final appearance in a magazine until Brackett revived the character in the 1970s. The aforementioned Black Amazon, featured so prominently on the cover, begins as Stark's antagonist but ends up an ally.
The attitudes of the time did not allow for Stark (the guy with the sword) to be depicted as Brackett described him. Stark had Caucasian features, but his skin was almost pitch black from having been raised on the surface of Mercury with its close proximity to the Sun.
