Western Animation - Discuss American, Canadian, and European cartoons here (or just bitch about wokeshit, I guess)

I remember Conan being portrayed as more of a force of nature than a human being. I think Genndy will fail to deliver on that because he tends to always give his characters soft spots, and the Barbarian is supposed to have none whatsoever. He's a thief/conquerer, larger-than-life character, and I can't recall Genndy ever directing one of those.*

I'm sure it'll be pretty decent regardless; he'll likely fuse his Primal lead with Samurai Jack. It just won't be true to the Conan of the pulp stories.

*Even Aku (the shape-shifting master of darkness) isn't larger than life. Aku isn't like Napolean, where there's stories of him winning over whole columns of soldiers with a single speech. Instead he's cajoling, bribing, coercing, destroying, using subterfuge etc.

Ok real fuckin shot in the dark here but does any other nigga remember the 90s Conan cartoon?

I have exceedingly ancient memories of watching this around about the same time I was introduced to Warhammer Fantasy which would be when I was like 5 or 6 and from what little I remember it was not entirely terrible, although I am unsure if this is just nostalgia goggles on my part

Don't forget that Conan was also a librarian once.
