Cage Match: Conan vs Tarzan TO THE DEATH!

[AdmundfortGeographer]

They are two great pulp heroes. I'm not voting because neither could win a fight to the death, as neither is killable.

Quoted for truth!

I'm going with Conan. I think he'd be the first one to cheat.

 

[Tonguez]

I'm going with Conan. I think he'd be the first one to cheat.

And that would be his biggest mistake. Cheating implies that they are fighting within the confines of some kind of rules - Tarzan doesn't fight by any rules, his is the savage barbarism of the jungle.

I think everyone should read one ERB Tarzan book and one REH Conan book starting this weekend. It has nothing to do with the poll but a damn fine way to spend some time.

Neither would fight by any rules. They are both the dominant barbaric yet highly intelligent force in their respective literature. Anything but a draw would be inconceivable.

 

[Orius]

Crom! It's Conan all the way!

 

[Andelas]

Kane would slaughter them both.

 

[Hand of Evil]

Kane would slaughter them both.

Well, that is a given.
