I've just started reading the chronicles of Conan and I'm blown away by his talent as a writer. Did my research to find he shot himself at 30 so basically he wrote almost all his story's in his 20's like you say which is mind blowing. His mother was his best friend and she'd come close to death fighting her tuberculosis before it eventually took her and Howard had said he'd follow her... If only someone could have told Howard his mother wouldn't want him to follow her before his time...such a massive loss... I've ordered Howards book of horror story shorts and his Solomon Kane collection. I'll be buying this Kull stuff too. Howard clearly inspired many including King and G.R.R.Martin. I got into Howard through my love for Lovecraft who Howard was good friends with. What a talent he was.

Robert E. Howard created Red Sonya of Rogatino in the story The Shadow of the Vulture. Roy Thomas and Bary Windsor-Smith of Marvel Comics created Red Sonja of Hyrkani and based her off of Red Sonya of Rogatino purely due to her hair colour. Since Conan already had two major love interests, Valeria (a blonde) and Belit (a brunet) they wanted someone who was visually distinct so they wanted to go with a red head, and since Robert E. Howard had this great character from a completely different point in time they just changed the name (by one letter.....) and changed her place of birth (they even refered to her as a "she-devil" in Shadow of the Vulture mind you) they figured that would be good enough.

I think Conan is more popular than Kull mainly for the reason that Kull was (or at least increasingly become) a brooding, philosophising character embossed with seriousness. Conan stayed pretty simple and take leave from his responsibilities as king from time to time, so he could still have adventures without the faith of nations and worlds on the balance. In short, Conan stayed ever what made both Kull and Conan popular, while Kull become a philosopher ruler few could or would identify with.

The KULL movie looked like a TV production and never had the mystique of the CONAN movies. That's unfortunate because the KULL stories read like a precursor to CONAN. R.E.Howard set up the Hyborian age to define the world that his stories took place in. It's such a shame that Howard committed suicide. As an extremely talented writer he probably was just hitting his creative stride and could have produced many more vivid characters ! H.P. Lovecraft was a penpal of Howard's. Something that is seldom mentioned. Many of the dark stories that Howard wrote feature "gods" of forgotten races. Evil that had lain dormant in the earth. I'm sure Lovecraft was drawn Howard's imagination, since it overlapped with his own.

She's from a Conan story! 🤣 Oh and she can't turn into any demon or anything, though he is a Vampire (and she isn't human either, she is one of the Giant-Kings). She was also 10,000 years old when Conan met her, which mean when she was turned into a Vampire, that was still 2,000 years before Kull was around. 😉 So 3,000 was only a little bit of a stretch, but yeah even though she never appeared in the Kull stories she *WAS* around back then.

Kevin Sorbo at his best. Clearly a Sword and Sorcery movie worthy of its name! The dead Atlantian king, I'm not sure it may have been Kull - It iS possible but may have just as well been a late Atlantian king before the wars that brought the Atlantians into savagery. Kull was after all never a king of Atlantis or even Atlantians but of Valusia though the crypt may have been buried due to the cataclysm, otherwise it should have been more grande looking... Speculations a dn theories aside I think at least spiritually that the Atlantian King in the crypt could have been Kull as it would have been a great symbolism. While the lore does not say it outright there are strong hints that Kull is in fact the ancestor of Conan as the Atlantians are the ancestors of the Cimerians (Who in turn are the encestors of the Celts of Britain such as the Irish and the Welsh/Cimri).

The story takes place in a fictionalized idea of the 'old world', europe, asia, and africa. Its fictionalized structure is a cross of multiple eras in history, combining elements from the persian, roman, greek, and egyptian empires and ancient chinese dynasties along with tribal traditions of gauls, nords, etc. Howard took his inspiration from real world heroes and biblical or other religious figures. A pretty similar real world character would be William Wallace acting in rebellion against the rule of Britan to free the Irish serfs.
