Good Show Sir

A huge hunky man with bulging muscles and a loincloth that just about covers his ass with a sword symbolically hanging down from it. Oh and have him holding a huge spear with his taught sweaty arms.Wait – better make this a little less fabulous – add in a dragon that he might be about to kill… or seduce….

Thanks to CSA!

   Since this is a Conan cover, one could argue that it’s missing a woman in a chainmail bra, but really this is not too shabby.

   Shouldn’t “Would not like to be seen reading that” be attached to a higher score than 6/10?

   Good point David! What do you think it should be? Swap it with 7?

   So it would be:

   6 Stars: Awfull…just awfull…
   7 Stars: Would not like to be seen reading that!

   I was thinking more of an 8.

   Arnold on steroids wasn’t this big! The artist is obviously following the trope, and utterly unaware that musculature to that degree is actually counter-productive to wielding a sword. Check the trivia on Imdb for the first Conan mocie. ASchwarzenegger was unable to perform some of tbe basic techniques with his sword because he was excessively muscular.
