It’s another Mail Call that isn’t a comic, but is definitely related to comics.

It’s also a Mail Call that clearly demonstrates that my purchasing decisions are very easily influenced by things I see on social media – at least if it’s the sort of thing I’d be inclined to buy anyway – as it was upon seeing this in someone’s post that I decided I should purchase one of my own.

(I do wish I’d paid attention to when it would be delivered, as I’m annoyed that I contributed to the work someone had to do on Labor Day.)

The Complete Chronicles of Conan
Robert E. Howard

In fairness to me, I’m not that easily influenced. After all, it’s been a very long time since I owned any non-comics Conan content, and I’ve been meaning to do something about that for years.

It was less that I was influenced and more that I was reminded.

In any case, I am working on that Unbagging post, but I can tell you that there will also be more Mail Call posts in the future, one of which will include another Conan appearance (this time in comics form).
