Conan the Barbarian: dust of the four color world by C. Lue Disharoon

By the way, I recommend any issues of the black and white cult classic Savage Sword of Conan you can find, but in the meantime, from the world of American comic books, I bring you these covers, whose material is copyright Marvel Entertainment.

My article has now been published through Associated Content; copy and give it a click to read, here: http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/8310583/dust_of_the_four_colored_world_conan.html

Rose McGowan Jason Momoa, Ron Pearlman

Based on R.E. Howard's poem



Based on the celebrated Howard story, "Tower of the Elephant." A secret of unattainable riches lures the young thief Conan, but what he finds is a poignant, fallen visitor from the stars. Melancholy in a very Robert E. Howard fashion, words driven to their breaking point with lyricism.






Rogues in the House has it all for the fan of action, treachery, and mystery! Conan falls in with a lovely thief and her partner, but there's no one to be trusted, least of all the mysterious Red Priest and his temple of death traps.






Absolutely chilling story, adapted with Red Sonja in her second Conan appearance, soon before getting her own comic. The sorcerer here breeds sickly, subhuman slaves, and throws a drugged Conan into their midst to mate!








No supporting character affected Conan's life more than the pirate Belit, who was created by R.E.Howard but given an extended role by writer Roy Thomas.

Howard Chaykin's fine turn as artist, with the giant Ptolemy and the city of the lost Roman Empire. Love the concept!


Right behind my two favorite she-devils with swords, Zula was an equal to Conan and a fighting companion for many issues.



This flashback to the earliest adventures of young Conan was very unusual, in that it was told so far out of order and has a very cool battle plus a clever solution.




Sadly, all good things must come to an end, and Thomas had to send Conan back down his path towards conquering kingship alone.

Finally, got to give it up for J.M. de Matteis for creating a story about friendship, music, a beautiful, mysterious woman, and our primal hero shown with depth and poetry, with the return to the Daughter of the Frost Giants.




J.M.DeMatteis one of ten favorite comics of Conan the Barbarian,
#127, which is the kind of story I would love to draw, but I could hardly picture it as well as superb illustrator/ storyteller Gil Kane.

The Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe Deluxe Edition- this day, 1985!

Thirty three years ago, today! (That is, August 27th, 1985) Oh, the stories these opened up for me. Alphabetically, fans could find every character still living who'd made at least three appearances, as well as many brand new lights. Origins, major life events, stories from twenty-five years of great Marvel continuity. You could even find out how tall, how heavy, or what color eyes the character should have, which sort of personalizes them and makes them all the more easy to imagine. You could find some description of every single power a character has, and often, see an Eliot R. Brown- illustrated blueprint for their best known weapons, vehicles, and acoutrement. But what could ever be more fuel for debate than : STrength Level! I was eleven when the series started, so of course I still found this part cool and interesting. Fans have been debating the strength levels of their favorite heroes and villains since comics began, so here was the sometimes controversial but ...

Eminem's Rap God sample: that's Captain America and the Falcon, from Power Records!

What do Eminem and most Integr8d Fix readers have in common? Comic books, man. As a boy, I had two Power Records, a brand that released dramatized versions of comic books on 45 rpm, complete with a book sampling most of the comic's artwork. The first was a stand-alone Superman adventure I think was written by Elliot S! Maggin, where aliens fell to earth in the form of silver-hued bullets. The second one, I only had the record, but it was intense: Captain America and the Falcon confront the mystery of The Phoenix, a man whose thirst for revenge is born from Cap's battles in the world war before his frozen suspension. I didn't get hooked on Eminem's 2013 release "Rap God" until I was putting together a hip hop playlist this September. Not unlike when Anj and I discovered Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre back in college, I was wrestling with an angry mood over someone who cheated me of recording time after I gave up eleven Sundays of my life to give...his initials ...

Lost World of Apes: the Bili and Mangani

Mangani is the name of a fictional species of great apes in the Tarzan novels of Edgar Rice Burroughs, and of the invented language used by these apes. In the invented language, Mangani (meaning "great-ape") is the apes' word for their own kind, although the term is also applied (with modifications) to humans. The Mangani are represented as the apes who foster and raise Tarzan. Dr. Peter Coogan wrote a page on the synthetic language created for the Mangani and Tarzan, provided here in pdf: http://www.pjfarmer.com/woldnewton/Mangani.pdf The language of the great apes of Africa that Edgar Rice Burroughs depicts in the Tarzan novels is not some simple, made-up collection of sounds substituting for English. It is a representation of a deeply structured, complex linguistic sign system with a grammar and syntax of its own. This grammar has never been worked out because its last living native speakers (with the exception of Tarzan himself) went extinct in the last century. Unfor...
