Schwarzwald posted:Howard's stories, when taken as a whole, portray a cycle where mighty barbaric people slowly become more civilized, decadent, and weak, and are in turn conquered by those who stayed barbaric. The opening to the 2010 (?) Kull the Conqueror comic series has a king besieged by Kull's army open a magical cellar which releases a giant demon trapped since prehistory. The demon then laments how weak men have become as he slaughters everyone. It rules. Howard rules. The fact all the monsters have no rhyme or reason and are unexplainable horrors rules especially in a world where every nerd universe has a wiki and a carefully cataloged bestiary of every made up dumb monster.

Dog_Meat posted:I could never put my finger on what the vibe of the 82 film was, then someone on the forums nailed it. 1982 Conan is a Spaghetti Western in a fantasy setting. Complete with overdubbing actors entire performances like Spaghetti Westerns. Here are some of those sweet sweet Earl Norem Conan illustrations
