Also worth noting is the excellent afterword by Thomas, putting the content of the volume in a historical context and providing behind-the-scenes insights as he has done in the previous volumes as well, I hasten to add. The return of Conan is at hand. It never approaches awful, but neither is working at their best.

Kane is an excellent artist and I always liked his work on Green Lantern and the Atom, but just never got behind his version of Conan which to me looked too "thin" and just not as ferocious or as powerful as John Buscema's version.

They're just not especially good, and they're definitely not very good as adaptations of Robert E. Howard's " The Frost Giant's Daughter ". This particular volume is famous for featuring a 2-part crossover with Michael Moorcock's Melnibone universe, and the result is suitably epic.

Conan may be the only man with enough power to stem the tide of chaos in Koth after the king's death but for one small detail - Conan killed the king!

Of those, there are few that speak as clearly and as uniquely as artist Barry Windsor-Smith. Volume 12 - 2nd and later printings. Written by James Owsley and Val Semeiks.

  • The Nemedian Chroniclers #22 [WS16]
    REHeapa Winter Solstice 2016 By Lee A. Breakiron A WORLDWIDE PHENOMENON Few fiction authors are as a widely published internationally as Robert E. Howard (e.g., in Bulgarian, Croatian, Czech, Dutch, Estonian, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hungarian, Italian, Japanese, Lithuanian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish, and Yugoslavian). As former REHupan Vern Clark states: Robert E. Howard has long been one of America’s stalwarts of Fantasy Fiction overseas, with extensive translations of his fiction & poetry, and an ever mushrooming distribution via foreign graphic story markets dating back to the original REH paperback boom of the late 1960’s. This steadily increasing presence has followed the growing stylistic and market influence of American fantasy abroad dating from the initial translations of H.P. Lovecraft’s Arkham House collections in Spain, France, and Germany. The growth of the HPL cult abroad has boded well for other American exports of the Weird Tales school, and with the exception of the Lovecraft Mythos, the fantasy fiction of REH has proved the most popular, becoming an international literary phenomenon with translations and critical publications in Spain, Germany, France, Greece, Poland, Japan, and elsewhere. [1] All this shows how appealing REH’s exciting fantasy is across cultures, despite inevitable losses in stylistic impact through translations. Even so, there is sometimes enough enthusiasm among readers to generate fandom activities and publications. We have already covered those in France. [2] Now let’s take a look at some other countries. GERMANY, AUSTRIA, AND SWITZERLAND The first Howard stories published in German were in the fanzines Pioneer #25 and Lands of Wonder ‒ Pioneer #26 (Austratopia, Vienna) in 1968 and Pioneer of Wonder #28 (Follow, Passau, Germany) in 1969.

  • The Nemedian Chroniclers #24 [AE17]
    REHeapa Autumnal Equinox 2017 THE RISE OF THE NEW HYBORIAN LEGION, PART TWO By Lee A. Breakiron As we saw last time, the Robert E. Howard United Press Association (REHupa) was the first amateur press association (apa) dedicated to that author. Its founder, Tim C. Marion, started it in 1972 when he was 13 and edited it through the first 19 of its bimonthly Mailings, but left afterward since he was ultimately more interested in fan activities than Howard as a literary figure. Before that, discontent with his leadership and with the real dearth of worthwhile essays and critiques during the early years led to future literary critic Don Herron and others to leave and create The Hyperborian League (THL) apa in October, 1975. Its official editor (OE) was Herron and it was “devoted to the creative discussion of authors Clark Ashton Smith and Robert E. Howard and their works,” though material on other fantasy writers and poets was welcomed. Herron said he spelled the name of the apa “Hyperborian” rather than “Hyperborean” because he wanted to emphasize the fact that it was devoted to both CAS (whence Hyperborean) and REH (whence Hyborian). It would still be occasionally misspelled, even on covers. Its official organ document was titled “Skull & Sandalwood,” suggested by REH’s “Skull-Face” and CAS’s Sandalwood. The fanzines composing the quarterly Mailings were at first stapled by the contributors and left so by the OE, who collected them and mailed them out to the current individual members. He also distributed some copies to libraries, sent “speculative” (“spec”) copies to recruit prospective members, and sold remaining ones to defray postage costs.

Johnson Email: [email protected] Office: 1917 Dunton Tower Phone: (613) 520-2600 ext. 2331 Office Hours: Tuesdays 1:30 p.m.-3:00 p.m. Course Description This course has several broad goals, foremost among them is to guide students towards a fuller, richer, more pleasurable, more knowledgeable, and more intellectually stimulating experience of reading comics. To this end, the course will begin with a substantial introduction to the formal and technical dimensions of comics as a medium of expression. We will learn about how elements like the comic panel and the comic page function as systems of meaning and how visual and verbal systems of signification converge and interact within graphic space. We will develop our skills in visual literacy and examine some of the ways that comic narratives have shaped but also challenged the conventions of the medium across a very broad range of visual styles, genres, and aesthetic projects. Once we have developed some preliminary facility with the formal elements and technical language of comics, we will begin to pursue the secondary goals of the course in greater detail: (1) developing a sense of the material and cultural history of North American comics and (2) developing a sense of the emergent academic field of comic studies.

  • Joe Sinnott “The World’S Greatest Comic Inker!”
    JOE SINNOTT “THE WORLD’S GREATEST COMIC INKER!” Interviewed by Alan Doshna The Official Joe Sinnott Website http://www.joesinnott.com/ Few are the artists in any field who can dependably produce consistently outstanding work in their given field. Such a one, however, is renowned comic book penciller and inker Joe Sinnott.Born in Upstate New York in 1926, Joe is probably best known for his long tenure on The Fantastic Four, embellishing Jack Kirby’s pencils, The Mighty Thor, Captain America and others. Besides K irby, other whose work he has inked is a literal or “graphic”) Who’s Who” of comic book greats, such as Steve Ditko, Gil Kane, Neal Adams, John Buscema, John Byrne, Carmine Infantino and many, many more. Joe took some time for an interview with us recently. Q: Could you share with us a little bit about your early life and background? A: Oh, sure. Of course I was born in Saugerties, I still live in Saugerties. And I spent three years down in the city when I went to the Cartoonists and Illustrators School (Note: later called The School of Visual Arts). Of course, before that, I served in the Navy Seabees in WW II. And I always drew, I know you’d probably want to know that, ever since I can remember, when I was three years old. My mother had a boarding house, and one of the teachers gave me a box of crayons for my birthday when I was three years old, and it had an Indian on it. I can still recall the Indian, and I drew that Indian over and over and over again with those crayons, and we also had another roomer in the house that had been in the German submarine service in WW I.
