Have you read Chabon's Gentlemen of the Road? I swear, it could have been published in prime-of-life ADVENTURE or BLUE BOOK and no one would have blinked an eye. A tremendous recapturing of the pulp energy and style, but without the bad parts. So I'm hopeful that, if he writes Conan, he'll do a very good job of approximating REH.
New Letterkenny is the best holiday gift I'm going to get this year.
I have read it. I don’t think I was in the right place at the time. I don’t remember a thing about it. But I will trust your assessment rather than re-read it. I think he’s actually writing about Howard, rather than Conan, but maybe he’s doing both. I am very curious, no matter what. And, maybe, just a bit judgey.

Reading that there is another season of Letterkenny about to drop has made my heart grow three sizes.
I think it’s 12/15, but don’t quote me.
