As a fan of the books long before I saw the movie, it infuriates me how many people misunderstand why Conan is so popular. All because of a movie that is a complete bastardization of the character, although the movie itself is a lot smarter than people give it credit for.
@Lord Frieza As a fan of the Peter Jackson LOTR, I don't entirely disagree with the sentiment. My first problem is the movie is they did the character dirty and made everyone think that Conan as simpleton brute who puts all his points into STR. Especially when you compare it to the character in the book who was intelligent similar to that of a survivalist and learned how to speak and read multiple languages purely out of savage pragmatism. I just found the movie extremely disappointing and mediocre despite Arnold being perfectly cast in it and after hearing Midnight's Edge talk about it, I am willing to give it another shot. And my second problem is you can tell an interesting Conan movie based on the books as the lore is very deep and Howard kept a lot of notes on the history of the world you could draw from. Since they are short stories that you can justify adding some additional plot points to help add context to the greater narrative, a good example being the comic run of Queen of the Black Coast Dark Horse did. Conan has such vast potential and it's just frustrating that modern media just cannot figure out WHY it's has stood the test of time and just churn out trend-chaser products.
It’s remarkable such a young author was able to write such riveting fantasy tales. Committed suicide at only 30 years of age, one can only imagine the amount of material he’d dish out later in life had circumstances been different. Such a loss. Great video K&Gs!
Having read the brief autobiography they made at the end of the collection of Solomon Kane books, Robert was showing an interest in the Western genre. The mere thought of what he could’ve come up with would have been insane.
Robert E Howard was a prolific writer of pulp fiction. Most of his works that were published in his lifetime appeared in magazines such as Weird Tales. He wrote epic fantasy, horror, westerns, historical fiction, contemporary adventure stories, and boxing stories. Besides Conan he created Solomon Kane, King Kull of Atlantis, Bran Mac Morn last king of the Picts, Cormac Mac Art and others.
@@BoltonForTheNorth The story this video is about is called "The Black Colossus". One of the original short stories Howard wrote. Google is your friend here.
I love Conan and have been a huge fan for 42 of my 50 years. I hope you guys keep making these documentaries spanning the battles fought by the Savage Sword of Conan the king!
Another one! I'm at a loss for words and one of my favorite moments in Conan lore was when Yasmela was told by Mitra or a someone hiding behind the statue of Mitra to find the first man she sees at night to save her kingdom! Thanks again Wizards and Warriors!!!
My favorite is when Yasmela introduces Conan to her men, telling them that she's found a commander to lead her army, talking him up to the officers, pulling back the curtain and revealing Conan, hunched over the table and eating meat right off the bone like an animal. I can almost see the soldiers' faces when they realize their princess hired a barbarian to be their general.
You have no idea how happy you’ve made this long-time Conan fan. This video is a adaptation of the story “The Black Colossus”, which is definitely one of the classics. If you have not taken a deep dive into Conan, know this: the movie with Arnold Schwarzenegger is NOT what Conan is. An entertaining movie with deep philosophical undertones but Conan in literature is a lot smarter than that. How smart? Well, in the story “The Servants of Bit-Yakin” there is a sequence in which he translates an ancient scroll from a tomb and is able to decipher a meaning from it despite it being extinct. And he learns to do this purely on the chance it could save his life one day. Yes, he pretty literally became an amateur archeologist out of survivalist pragmatism. you can find a collection of his books everywhere that also include his personal essays on the Hyborian Age that he made as notes similar to the Silmarillion for Tolkien. The books are split up into The Coming of Conan, The Conquering Sword of Conan, and The Bloody Crown of Conan which include all the pulp stories of Conan along with essays and drafts. I also do recommend the comics of Conan, the Dark Horse run and the French comic Conan the Cimmerian are great adaptations of the work. Don’t bother with the movies, they don’t do any justice to the work.
My Father was a book seller. He serviced grocery stores, drug stores, pipe n cigar shops etc. Magazines and paperbacks. Had the entire Ace collection on the shelf, which then led to Lovecraft.
As a Conan fan, there are omnibus books that are a collection of all the Conan short stories you can check out. The Coming of Conan is a good start but the Conquering Sword of Conan has some of the best ones. I also recommend Solomon Kane by the same author.
Imagine how confused Conan would have been. Young woman in disguise brings you to the Palace, you think she's after some foreign barbarian sex, and then she turns and tells you youre in charge of the army now
Since I was a kid, I've read many stories about Conan, jealously keeping Howard's books in my library. I remember well this story and one of its foreshadowing moment, when Amalric says to Conan that he's wearing the battle armor of a Korajan general better than many kings, somehow hinting at his future.
This is making me really want to look into Conan. Before this series, all I knew was what I had read from a collection of short stories or something of the like, not any of the proper books or movies. I thought at the time that it seemed pretty cool, but not much more than that as I was falling down my napoleonic rabbit hole at the time.
Did anyone else hear "coffee and gold" instead of Kothian gold. Had to replay that section half a dozen times and have closed captions on to clear it up, because my brain was all "well, coffee WOULD have been a highly valuable commodity back then...."
Documentaries, I don't know. I know of the movie "The Whole Wide World", that tells the story of the life of Robert E. Howard from his then girlfriend perspective, based on the biography she wrote. There are several scenes where he talks about the character. Otherwise, he had a lot of correspondence with other pulp writers of the age like Clark Ashton Smith or H.P. Lovecraft. And there are several books compiling those letters, and in some of those he speaks in detail of the thought process behind his creation of the character.
Great video. I always wanted to see the events of "The Black Colossus" depicted on something like this. And it was a great description of the battle. But the proportions of that map used for the Hyborian Age still seem weird to me. And why Brythunia and Nemedia are now part of Aquilonia? Anyway, for suggestions for future videos, I think you should give it a try at the Second Extrasolar War, from Killzone. Is a relatively short Sci-fi conflict, but is full of story details and political drama. Also, thinking about more popular franchises that could bring out more views, you could try your hand with the Fall of Camavor and the Ruination of Helia, from League of Legends. It's only a small battle, but is full of detail.
I think that by this point in the series Aquilonia had annexed Nemedia and Brythunia. In “Beyond the Black River” the Aquilonians are fighting a war with the Picts and Conan talks about them having Nemedian auxiliaries and Brythunian archers. Ironically, the Cimmerians are no friends of Aquilonia, but in that story Conan is doing a sort of Beorn the Bear-style ‘I don’t like “X group of people” … but “Y group of people” I hate more!’ kinda thing.
@@stephenfitzgerald9769 I remember reading the essay Howard did of the Hyborian Age, and remember Nemedia being pointed out as one of the few nations they never managed to conquer. And the stories always mention mercenary armies, being brought out of every Hyborian nation near. I don't think that necessarily means Nemedia and Brythunia were under their control
@@JohnnyElRed wouldn’t surprise me if I was mistaken. I just started reading Howard’s work last year and I’m not as well acquainted with it as I am with some other settings. Though Aquilonia does become an expansionist power at some point, I believe. Correct me if I’m wrong.
@@stephenfitzgerald9769 Yeah, they do conquer a lot of their neighbouring countries like Zingara, and vasalize the rest. But in the time of Conan, I think they weren't even near their zeitgeist. In fact, with the mad king Numenides on the front, they were on a period of decline at that moment.
Nice one, never got into the lore of Conan in strategic details, it’s interesting. Although less detailed and subtle than others fantasy series (lot older too, this explains that in some way), but it remains interesting. I really wish you continue the serie about warhammer fantasy lore though, that one is great, and as I play a lot of wh3 these days, it’s good content to have a video running in the background while I play. So hope you will do next episodes there soon. Thx, great job as always 😊
Those who fought the battle in conans presence swear that they heard music and song coming from some unknown source. It supposedly went " HEEEEEE'S MOOOOOORE POWERFUL THAN ANY MAN! HIS LEGEND SPREADS ACROSS THE LAND AND SEAAAAAAAAAA!
Supercool! I was looking forward to more Conan and this story is one of the best in my opinion. The last final battle between the wizard and the barbarian general would have been intresting to include with Yasmela ending up in Conan´s arms. Also the map has no Nemedia so where does the chronicler live? Very nice though. Nice art. Nice perspective on magic used on the battlefield, first smoke curtain then some kind of minefield/caltrops exploding gastrap. :) Nice!
“The Lion banner sways and falls in the horror-haunted gloom; A scarlet Dragon rustles by, borne on winds of doom. In heaps the shining horsemen lie, where the thrusting lances break, And deep in the haunted mountains, the lost, black gods awake. Dead hands grope in the shadows, the stars turn pale with fright, For this is the Dragon's Hour, the triumph of Fear and Night.” The Hour of the Dragon
Great work, love the channel and have always loved the Conan mythos; the animation needs a little work. At 4:56 the sabers the desert nomads are waving are held backwards, which is a bit awkward. The knucklebow follows the edge of the saber. No big deal, really, but it was a pretty glaring mistake.
Excellent video as always! Might I suggest the Battle of Astarte from Legend of the Galactic Heroes? Its such an underrated series tbh, I hope you give it some thought.
Geralt, I think. He was not only highly trained (what could be said about Conan, too I guess), but also mutated and has his magic and potions. I mean most beasts in Concan seem to be tough and strong, but a Witcher has not just to fight the brute but also enemies who are swift as the wind. And in his long life he has fought enemies of all kind, so I think he would be able to defeat Concan - if he see a reason to do so, since Geralt was a man who fought most times what he saw as a good cause (different to that barbarian), and he was not merc for hire to kill humans.
Hey would it be possible for you guys to feature the war between the ancient Giant Kings of Stygia and the invaders from the east(The Naacal/Khari) who conquered them after these invaders fled from proto-Khitai?
He wrote a lot in like 10 years. I can only imagine what would we have gotten if he lived another 40 years or so. What impact would the WW would have gotten on him I wonder?
The map at the start of the video is totally wrong, Nemedia and Bruthinia is shown as a part of Aquilonia. Also Ophir is smaller, the south Ophir belongs to Koth.
The battle the followed was also an engagement that would live on forever. The Battle of Yasmela's Virginity! Conan fell upon the timid Princes with a ferocity born on Battle!, the screams of lust could be heard in all 4 corners of the Hyborian Continent!
Man me and that Princess have the same problem! I walked up to the first person I saw wondering the streets, as my Knight Commander as well! It was a Homeless Drunk named Duki Duki!... So yea he said he was to attack a Ghost Army bearing down on us, but ended up chasing some birds around a park, than losing his pants and taking a dump in front of the Police Station.... So ends the Tale of Duki Duki...

Buy the book "The coming of CONAN the Cimmerian"

@Lord Frieza As a fan of the Peter Jackson LOTR, I don't entirely disagree with the sentiment.

Especially when you compare it to the character in the book who was intelligent similar to that of a survivalist and learned how to speak and read multiple languages purely out of savage pragmatism.

One of Howard's best Conan stories. I love seeing some animation paired with it. Looking forward to the next addition to this series.

Really nice for you to cover Conan since it's a world i can never get enough of
I enjoy this so much hands down my favourite series so far on this channel 👌🏻
It saddens me to know that Robert E Howard committed suicide at 30 after creating this epic character and the stories that would be told about him.
The gay rumors?
Poor guy had demons, but also a fantastic mind
It was a real dirtbag move the way he did it. I feel horrible for his father tbh.

I remember this story. It was a good one!
“The Lion banner sways and falls in the horror-haunted gloom;
A scarlet Dragon rustles by, borne on winds of doom.
In heaps the shining horsemen lie, where the thrusting lances break,
And deep in the haunted mountains, the lost, black gods awake.
Dead hands grope in the shadows, the stars turn pale with fright,
For this is the Dragon's Hour, the triumph of Fear and Night.”
The Hour of the Dragon
Do you think you'd be able to do Narnia or Dune?
You should do the sack of Venarium and Aquilonian occupation of Cimmaria which Conan participated in at age 15 or so.
Robert Howard’s suicide was the biggest loss to fantasy literature. Imagine what he could have achieved if he had started writing western novels too
Hell, it was a great loss to literature, period.
He wrote a lot of interesting characters in various genres that suck you in.
It was a real dirtbag move the way he did it. I feel horrible for his father tbh.
Great work, love the channel and have always loved the Conan mythos; the animation needs a little work. At 4:56 the sabers the desert nomads are waving are held backwards, which is a bit awkward. The knucklebow follows the edge of the saber. No big deal, really, but it was a pretty glaring mistake.

I like how Conan is basically Bronze Age low fantasy but that there are examples of overt magic like the liche Natohk and the sorcerer at Makkalet.
Need more❤
Conan vs Geralt in their prime and fully experienced. Who would win?
Geralt, I think. He was not only highly trained (what could be said about Conan, too I guess), but also mutated and has his magic and potions. I mean most beasts in Concan seem to be tough and strong, but a Witcher has not just to fight the brute but also enemies who are swift as the wind.
