SCENE - ORIGINAL COMICBOOK ART PAGE In a last stand, King Kull and his outnumbered army of faithful friends, citizens and soldiers, are assembled, and armed to the teeth, to face an army of the walking dead, in the harbor of Valusia of legendary Atlantis, and the defining battle commences… KING KULL King Kull, the barbarian warrior who became king of fair Valusia (Atlantis), before it was swallowed by the oceans, and before the coming of the Hyborian age, and Conan the Barbarian, is one of the many heroes originally created by writer Robert Ervin Howard (1906 - 1936). (Conan The Barbarian, Solomon Kane, Almuric,…) In the stories/adventures of Kull, he mostly has to deal with warring tribes, conquests, power intrigues, wizards and monsters. Due to the 1970ies succes of Marvel’s comicbook adaptations of Conan the Barbarian, Marvel started publishing adaptations of the adventures of other characters of R.E. Howard, which all became popular, because they were rediscovered by a comicbook audience in a broadening market, which also contributed to the rising popularity of the fantasy & sword & sorcery genre in comicbooks, novels, games, movies and tv-series.
