Yes, but a Native American. What with Conan being acquired by Disney / Marvel and integrated into the 616, maybe DC will dust off Arak ?
Disney didn't acquire, Conan, Paradox still owns it. Marvel got the license to use/publish Conan. And Roy had plans to continue Arak as a novel, series of short stories or screenplay (back when he was doing Hollywood on the wings of his Conan screenplay, but couldn't find a taker to run with it, so I am not sure who actually owns Arak, DC or Roy. It was that nebulous time where DC was publishing "creator-owned" books under the DC banner. -M I can't imagine DC giving ownership of anything to their creators, but it's true that Arak hasn't been seen in decades. |

According to ComicVine Arak was recently used in some of the CONVERGENCE titles |

I did not expect to get near this much swag !
There's a little duplication in here that I already have but it will be passed on to hungry readers.
Thanks so much Secret Santa !

It was fairly heavy.
At first I thought it was something from work.
I was shocked and surprised.
That's a lot of good reading.

Ok just doing a status check-
Looks like 4 have received packages so far-me, Icctrombone, hondobrode (all posted pics) and pinkfloydsound17 whose package was delivered but hasn't been picked up yet.
I believe everyone has sent their packages, but with Christmas a week away, want to make sure everyone gets theirs, so sound off if you have received it even if you can't post pics yet.

I got my package. I've been busy with work and holiday DJ stuff like this and this so I haven't had time to get the whole picture taking thing done, but as a fan of Mignola I appreciate the BPRD I was sent. There was also a copy of PCs Wrightsons anthology series I haven't read since the early 80's, plus Terry Moore's Rachel Rising #1 which I've been curious about. Thanks Santa! |
