Kull the Conqueror (1971) (Comic Book) | comment |
Kull the Conqueror (later retitled Kull the Destroyer) is a 1971 series from Marvel Comics, starring a version of Robert E. Howard's fantasy hero Kull. The series was initially written by Roy Thomas, with art by Ross Andru and Wally Wood, but the creative team changed several times during its run.Set many thousands of years ago, it stars Kull, a barbarian from Atlantis, who has survived many misfortunes and adventures to become the newly crowned king of Valusia. However, the conspiracy that led to the downfall of Valusia's last king did not intend Kull to become his successor, and is already plotting to depose him.Kull is broadly similar to Howard's most famous hero - Conan the Barbarian - and Marvel took much the same approach in adapting the two characters. However, whereas Conan is a wanderer, Kull is a king, and his enemies frequently rely on illusions, doppelgängers and betrayal to undermine his rule.The Kull the Conqueror series stands alone, but later crossover appearances also linked Kull, and the events of this series, to the shared Marvel Universe. | |

Ruler Protagonist: The first issue starts just after Kull's claimed the Valusian throne, and his role as a ruler is key to most subsequent plots. The Conspiracy wants him deposed and tensions with other nations repeatedly bring him challenges that can't solely be resolved by a barbarian's brawn. | |

It's a hot, sunny day - and Kull's summoned by the horrified crew when the beautiful woman starts liquefying into a ghastly, bloodless mess, but still lives and speaks. She's one of Melkori's wax doppelgängers, his finest creation. | |

Secret Test of Character: The Pictish messenger Brule claims that he is forbidden to raise his spear within Kull's palace. Kull, not trusting the Pict's invitation to a meeting, feigns rage and swings his sword towards Brule's head. Brule visibly sweats, but does not reach for his weapon to defend himself. Kull deliberately misses and decides that the Pict is trustworthy. | |

King Incognito: While out hunting, Kull and a stranger both shoot the same stag. The other man, a foreigner, assumes that Kull is a peasant. Kull, in turn, accuses him of being a poacher. Even when the stranger mentions that he's travelling to meet the king, Kull doesn’t reveal his identity. And it's not until later that Kull realises the stranger H'Nar is Regent Prince of his own land, and also chose not to reveal his nobility. | |

They're successful, too - Ridondo tricks Kull into believing that the king is about to abolish Kull's Black Legion, leading to a fatal duel between the two men. However, they didn't expect Kull to claim the throne himself after killing Borna, so, they promptly start plotting against Kull as well. | |

It takes a much darker turn once it's revealed that they also offer Human Sacrifices to the gods, and Kull and his men are destined for that fate. | |

Advertising by Association: The comic was originally billed as "From the creator of Conan!" on its covers. Robert E. Howard had been dead for thirty-five years and had nothing to do with the adaptation of his Kull stories, though. | |

Let's You and Him Fight | |
Kull the Conqueror (1971) (Comic Book) / int_c3bdfbb9 | comment |
Let's You and Him Fight: The minstrel Ridondo, acting on behalf of The Conspiracy, misleads Kull into believing that King Borna is about to abolish Kull's Black Legion, leading to an argument between Kull and the king that swiftly escalates into a duel. Kull wins and the king dies - however, to the conspirators' horror, the outsider Kull then claims the throne himself. | |

Trust Password | |
Kull the Conqueror (1971) (Comic Book) / int_cafdaf4e | comment |
Trust Password: The snake-men of Valusia can masquerade as humans, but the phrase "Ka Nama Kaa Lajerama" acts as a shibboleth and they cannot say it. On the other hand, it's been used that way for a very long time, and any snake-man hearing the phrase knows exactly what's happening (and will normally react with violence). Kull and his guards have a password for anyone wishing to visit the king's chambers at night, which seems to change each day. When Thulsa Doom sends a Brainwashed and Crazy palace servant, Shiva, to steal a magic gem from Kull, she doesn't know the correct word and is challenged by the guard. | |

Adaptation Name Change | |
Kull the Conqueror (1971) (Comic Book) / int_dc057cf3 | comment |
Adaptation Name Change: Sareeta, the woman whose execution leads Kull to leave Atlantis, is named Ala in the original stories. Two members of The Conspiracy to depose Borna and Kull are renamed for the comics. Gromel, the military commander, becomes Enaros. Volmana, count of Karaban, becomes Ducalon, count of Komahar. | |

Our Werewolves Are Different: The werewolf curse that Kull encounters is tied to the full moon, but doesn't seem to infect those wounded by werewolves. However, as Demontur explains, anyone who kills a werewolf in its hybrid form will be haunted and transformed by its spirit. | |

Evil-Detecting Dog: The Picts offer Kull a tiger as a gift. It immediately escapes its handler, intent on attacking the ancient sorcerer Thulsa Doom, who's visiting Kull's court in human guise. Kull swiftly kills it, but may regret that decision after Doom's true nature is revealed. | |
