  1. I’d like to point out that these are pulps we are talking about. I am a bit surprised that sex appeal and sensationalism is being viewed as a bad thing on a comic book chat board. It’s almost as if those who look down on sensationalism and sex appeal would prefer post-code comics? Plus, Howard and Lovecraft never had a book published in their life. Pulps are what brought sensationalism, sex appeal and pop culture to lituratue which comic book publishers at the time hoped to live up to. Brundage was not the best artist but she was perfect for her time and profession. Not all depictions of Conan have to be a Frazetta (who did sensationalism and sex appeal so well).
