  1. Last post for 1 year minimum outside of the Marketplace Forums & PM's.

     

    I seek the return of my adulthood.

     

    Long live the Conan Comics thread.

     

    meh, adulthood is overrated. :P

     

    Just redefine your concept of adulthood. I love mine, it is just like being a kid, but with more money and sex.

  2. What do you guys think of this book. I am considering purchasing this in grade for $250.00 USD. is that a good price?

    Do any boardies own a copy of this book?

     

    I think it has an INCREDIBLE cover.

     

     

     

     

    Sounds like a good buy to me if the condition is solid. Make you sure you post it here full size when you get it!

  3. Some formularies that have come to mind. I'm sober, as usual.

     

    1000's of years of Civilization to ultimately fall to its older but idle antecedent Barbarism.

     

    The Civilized Man as vessel for a legion of lifetimes, harkening back to his barbaric self during reverie, isolation, narcotics, trance.

     

    Manifold Identity like the avatars on a message board.

     

    Getting parlous now. No worries though. At best I have an audience of six readers in this thread & my only troll is greggy.

     

    A generation sufficient passage of time for savagery to reemerge, dominant.

     

    Time & self simultaneously telescoped & foreshortened.

     

    Naive notions of progress undercut by lost primeval wisdom.

     

    The complex made simple and vice versa.

     

    The diagram isn't a circle nor a pair of lines converging in the distance, but looping folds sandwiched tight into infinite layers of instantaneous strata.

     

     

     

     

    "Wheels within wheels in a spiral array? A patern so grand and complex?"

    "Time after time we lose sight of the way?. Our causes can't see their effects?"

     

     

    I think all REH fans have to love Rush on some level.

  4. What # WT was the first conan in again?

     

    That's Dec. 1932. Phoenix on the Sword. Actually a rejected Kull story with minor changes.

     

    March 1933 "The Tower of the Elephant" may better be described as the fist "true" Conan, where REH really gets a fix on who and what Conan is to become.

     

    Though actually the "Frost Giant's Daughter" and "The God in the Bowl" were written before Tower, just not published in Weird Tales.
