SAVAGE SWORD OF CONAN – Cover Tourney
By Brian Kronner
on 01.12.2010
k, so Hulk and Spidey are on hold, and first we’re gonna go with Conan.
Now to clear up any confusion on voting: When I said vote based on “art and desire the cover created to read, without any prior knowledge of the story” does not mean you have to pretend not to know the characters, just base it on interest the cover drums up.
Here are my top 32 covers, vote it up kids.
1. vs 32.
 
2. vs 31.
 
3. vs 30.
 
4. vs 29.
 
5. vs 28.
 
6. vs 27.
 
7. vs 26.
 
8. vs 25.
 
9. vs 24.
 
10. vs 23.
 
11. vs 22.
 
12. vs 21.
 
13. vs 20.
 
14. vs 19.
 
15. vs 18.
 
16. vs 17.

I'm straight up going with what I think makes great art, half naked babes: 32,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,23,22,21,13,1,15 and 17. 9 is the best overall, simply because they crammed as much Hyborian strange onto one cover.

#4 cover is best cover.
Also I now realize I need to read Conan.

Probably not the best place for this but what happened with Paul Telfer auditioning for the role of Conan? I don't know much of his work but when he played Corporal Werth in the NCIS episode Corporal Punishment he certainly had the Conan "look" and still sounded intelligent (which Conan is). In the fight scene he was reasonably believable and had good aggression. I like him for the role better than the two shown on Fist's site.

At least he's branching out and not focusing on just Munkrawk this time.
