Personaggio

Kull di Valusia, chiamato anche Kull di Atlantide o Kull il Conquistatore, è un personaggio immaginario di genere fantasy ideato dallo scrittore Robert E. Howard. Ha esordito nel racconto Il regno fantasma (The Shadow Kingdom), per la rivista Weird Tales (agosto 1929). Il personaggio è stato impersonato sul grande schermo dall'attore Kevin Sorbo nel film del 1997 Kull il conquistatore.

Chronology In Robert E. Howard's story "Kings of the Night", a character living in the time of the Roman Empire states that a contemporary of Kull's "has been dead a hundred thousand years as we reckon time."

Kull has been adapted to comics by Marvel Comics with three series between 1971 and 1985.[1] The first was drawn by Marie Severin and her brother John Severin. He also appeared several times in The Savage Sword of Conan series and other anthology books. Another graphic novel, Kull: The Vale of Shadow, was published in 1989.[2]

In 2006, Dark Horse Comics bought the rights to use Kull. The first series, titled Kull, was based on "The Shadow Kingdom".[3] Template:As of, three mini-series were published, Kull, Kull: The Hate Witch, and Kull: The Cat and the Skull.[1] Dark Horse also re-published the Marvel stories into two different Kull collections. The Marvel color comics were collected into five volumes titled The Chronicles of Kull, and the Marvel magazine format, black and white stories were collected into two volumes titled The Savage Sword of Kull.[4] Additional reprints were published in Robert E. Howard's Savage Sword.

In 2017, IDW Publishing got the license and began publishing Kull Eternal, using "The Mirrors of Tuzun Thune" as a story foundation of Kull in a modern setting.[1] The series was cancelled after the third issue.[5]
