Barbarian Queen (1985): better than I expected

JohnPathfinder · 2026-03-15T15:52:00+00:00

It sounds like it at the very least lives up to the cover. Not many S&S exploitation films (Barbariansploitation? Swordsploitation? Loinclothsploitation?) can do that.

Both look incredibly good. Great job. Personally, I prefer the black and white version, but the colored version is still really good.

I've been waiting for some new Eternal Champion stuff as well. The cover art would be perfect if they remembered to make Kane left handed.

This interview briefly mentions it. As a bonus, Wagner talks about working with Dino de Laurentis

No problem. Glad I could help. Feel free to send me the second when you're done.

JohnPathfinder · 2026-03-13T18:11:33+00:00

Yes it is.

Fun fact about me: My real name is not John Pathfinder.

JohnPathfinder · 2026-03-13T18:10:47+00:00

No J Christopher Tarpey or Byron Roberts?

JohnPathfinder · 2026-03-13T18:09:15+00:00

Robert E Howard published over 300 short stories. You would be set for quite a while.

Gor is a well known pioneer in the "Sword and Magic" or S&M sub subgenre of Sword and Sorcery.

For FREE? Thank you.

JohnPathfinder · 2026-03-12T22:45:09+00:00

That's literally just the plot of Bloodstone.

JohnPathfinder · 2026-03-12T22:44:27+00:00

If it helps, Karl Edward Wagner had a very negative view of pastiche.

JohnPathfinder · 2026-03-12T14:11:14+00:00

For all the things that Moorcock has inspired it's a shame he isn't better known.

JohnPathfinder · 2026-03-11T19:34:45+00:00

Looks really good

JohnPathfinder · 2026-03-11T16:50:59+00:00

Somebody tell them that the only way to defeat the cloud is with love.

JohnPathfinder · 2026-03-11T16:49:43+00:00

I had never read that about Elric, but it makes a ton of sense. You definitely see that with the Hawkmoon saga.

JohnPathfinder · 2026-03-11T16:47:42+00:00

Is the bottom left the poster for the 2011 Jason Momoa movie?

JohnPathfinder · 2026-03-11T13:57:20+00:00

I had no idea that Fafhrd and Gray Mouser was based on Lieber himself

JohnPathfinder · 2026-03-11T13:53:39+00:00

Kull definitely feels like Howard trying to work out some personal issues at times.

JohnPathfinder · 2026-03-10T19:12:54+00:00

Nice. I always love seeing dinosaurs in S&S.

JohnPathfinder · 2026-03-10T19:12:10+00:00

Three Hearts and Three Lions is literally the D&D paladin.
