For this month's "Maps Of The Month" featurette, I wish to draw your attention to John Brain's Escape From Mars: Starring Taz (Genesis) maps.
Marvin the Martian is fascinated with "rare Earth creatures", so when he learns of one called the "Tasmanian Devil", he captures Taz, intending to keep him in a Martian zoo. Unsurprisingly, the hot-headed Taz is not a fan of this arrangement, so he immediately breaks out and tries to find his way back home.
This is the adventure of "Escape From Mars: Starring Taz" (or, as the title on the box art reads, "Taz In Escape From Mars"). Somehow, via Acme shipping crates, Taz will travel from Mars to other planets, even back to Earth, though he must confront Marvin before he can return to Tasmania. It's not an easy trek through all these large, sometimes labyrinthine areas, but Genesis fan and cartographer John Brain can help you and Taz escape from Mars, with these 19 maps ranging from Mars to Moleworld to Mexico.
So to recognize the effort put into mapping this above-average Looney Tunes-licensed platformer, John Brain's Escape From Mars: Starring Taz (Genesis) maps will be known as VGMaps.com's Maps Of The Month for March 2025.
