Don't know how old this news is. . .Our favorite Cimmerian is getting his very own animated feature film-
CONAN: RED NAILS!
By Crom!! That's awesome!! I'm a HUGE Conan fan and hope this kicks ass. Conan is a pretty simple character yet can easily be effed up, so fingers crossed. Ron Perlman has been cast as Conan's voice - a nice fit, I think. Mark Hamill is providing a voice(s), too! The conceptual art looks nice, but Conan really needs look like a Frazetta painting (pictured right), in my opinion. NO ONE depicts Conan like Frank Frazetta - his is the ultimate version as far as I'm concerned.For more info, including conceptual art images, click HERE.
"Hither came Conan, the Cimmerian, black-haired, sullen-eyed, sword in hand, a thief, a reaver, a slayer, with giant melancholies and gigantic mirth, to tread the jeweled thrones of the earth under his sandalled feet." -- The Nemedian Chronicles

Are we talking about Conan the Barbarian? As in "AH-NALD? Or something else?
Yes - Conan the Barbarian.
No - Ah-Nald...that was just another take on the character.
I'm referring to the early books and paintings by Frank Frazetta (who also did the kickass book covers back then).
