Questionable Questing

He's meant to be this more cultured Conan archtype with flaws but also a greater inner code. Martial supremacy is baked into him with his worship of the Orc Father God of War. Grummish here being a mixture of Odin and Ares.

Honestly he sounds a little condescending and arrogant, I wonder how he would respond to getting his ass kicked by someone.

Here's a nice little reversal of the mother and son dynamic. With the mom teasing and pushing boundaries and the son clamping up.

That's how he got his Investment. A drinking slash wreslting contest with the Orc God of war where he lost

I need fucking more of that comic. There is not enough good Debbie and Mark smut

With lactating tits that big, that is a Debbie in need of a bunch more kids stat. lol.

Lactating milf is good culture.
Lothor I imagine would be by the rules of honor laughing off the failure while seething and wanting a rematch. Not to humiliate but a need to prove he could win next time

Oh and I wasn't saying him being arrogant or condescending was bad. In all honesty Conon was pretty dismissive towards the so-called softer civilized folks, even if he was careful not to say it out loud. Kind of ironic that it was the opinion piece of the author who was a very soft momma's boy in real life.

I thought Robert E Howard got into street fights?

He did. He was really into boxing as a kid and loved bodybuilding, but he suffered from a weak heart all his life and had been taking medication for it for decades. With that putting a stop to any serious plans to go anywhere with it, and is one of the big reasons historians think he really started having problems with being shut in.

He was a a shut in? And that is where the writing comes in?

I mean he had a lot of friends and he was dating this one girl for awhile with the two of them talking about marriage, and while he was never successful enough to be called famous in his own lifetime he was making enough money he probably could've moved out of his parents house if he wanted. But he had always been super close to his mom and she had tuberculosis that she dealt with for decades.

I never knew he was a momma's boy

And interesting historical perspective. He's loved now but in his time he was a minor weird fiction author

Keep in mind this is the 1930's, they didn't have a cure for it. So Howard really helped out as a caretaker for her and his dad for the longest time. But he also really suffered from some pretty heavy depression and had a lot of trouble interacting with people with many historians theorizing he was somewhere on the autism spectrum.

So between those two things he really struggled to launch I guess is the best way to phrase it. So while he was taking care of his parents, in a lot of ways they were taking care of him too. But again it's kind of hard to really pinpoint what happened because he was a very private guy and with how dramatic his death was it kind of overshadows his life and causes everyone to focus on that.

Autism is the mother of art

You know how he died, right?

Nope. Was it sad?

Well his mom's health didn't get better and eventually she fell into a coma that she wouldn't wake up from, dying a day later, and once the nurse told Howard that he walked into his car in the parking lot and killed himself with a pistol he had bought a couple week earlier, around the same time his mom started getting really sick and he decided to settle his will as well.
