Pretty cool, Warhead. B) The Frazetta Estate calls that painting by Frank "The Barbarian", so I adjusted the title.

It seems he just won a fight with the "Deathdealer". Very nice!

Would you say that Frazettas wiew of Hyboria is very much different from R E Howards novels, except for the obvious nudity?

Where is the scabbard for the sword he is holding? Is it the Deathdealer's sword? Where is the sword he normally carries in the visible scabbard?
"Did you deem yourself strong, because you were able to twist the heads off civilized folk, poor weaklings with muscles like rotten string? Hell! Break the neck of a wild Cimmerian bull before you call yourself strong. I did that, before I was a full-grown man...!" - Conan, in "Shadows in Zamboula", by Robert E. Howard
"... you speak of Venarium familiarly. Perhaps you were there?"
"I was," grunted [Conan]. "I was one of the horde that swarmed over the hills. I hadn't yet seen fifteen snows, but already my name was repeated about the council fires." - "Beyond the Black River", by Robert E. Howard
