I've always liked Kull better than Conan. Maybe it's because of the fish-out-of-water concept of a barbarian trying his best to rule a kingdom wisely. Maybe it's because he has a regular supporting cast, like Tu or Brule. Whatever the case, I found him to be a much more interesting character than his more famous fellow barbarian.
Ganda Reno! :D
ReplyDeleteThanks, Nikko!
DeleteConan is a fun character to read about because he's so basic and down-to-earth in his needs, wants and desires. Kull is more philosophical, introspective and yes, more intelligent than Conan. He's the thinking man's barbarian king.
ReplyDeleteI guess that could be it. I like reading Conan in small doses, but not as a regular feature.
