Sure, Kull hunts with a bow, but he doesn't get all weird and Nugent-y about it...

Did you know Marie and John Severin drew some Kull comics? And I mean drew the living hell out of, this issue looks great! From 1972, Kull the Conqueror #5, "A Kingdom by the Sea!" Written by Gerry Conway, pencils by Marie Severin, inks by John Severin. I would have to rely on the GCD to even hazard a guess how many issue #5's Kull has had...

This issue, the prince of said kingdom by the sea approaches Kull, to enlist the king's aid in driving demons from his land. Kull's royal court is all for the trade they'll get out of the deal, and Kull's citizens are all "Yay! War!" Kull still wants to help the prince out, but as is often the case, not everything is as it seems...Not a deep read, but the art is nice; yet I don't believe this has been reprinted to date. Keep an eye out!
