Pretty sure it's against Sharia law so it'll sell like shit.
Leo Martinez
Dumping one more pic for Lord Arioch.
Daniel Nguyen
Explain.
Michael Morgan
France is mostly Muslim and they get offended by everything.
Benjamin Gray
Fuck it. Here's one more. And a video that can help people that have no idea on where to begin.

Ian King
No, thanks. I already have Thomas' and Russell's Elric comics.
Ian James
I've never heard of this but it looks neat, kind of Dark Souls-y
Easton Reyes
But user kun.
Even Michael Moorckock endorsed the frogs.
The Japanese fucking love Elric.
Even in Daicon IV, the most featured element in it besides the bunny girl is Stormbringer.

And Yoshitaka Amano made a ton of stuff with Elric.
Adrian Jones
I'm sorry, but it's P. Craig Russell we're talking about.
Sebastian Parker
I prefer Hawkmoon.
Gabriel Lopez
Can't argue with that.
Nathaniel Reyes
did anybody ever story time the ruby throne?
Adam Nelson
I did months back. Fuck, i actually storytimed the entire Elric saga.
It's actually midnight here atm so i ain't gonna do it but someone else should.
Aaron Bailey
I guess you don´t have the links nor do they still work?
William Nguyen
Sorry man. Don't need links to them since i actually have the books for myself.
They shouldn't be hard to find though.

There. Took me a minute of searching.
As far as the original comics go, you're shit out of luck unless you wanna find a decent torrent of them.
Andrew Collins
how many original comics did the even make?
Jose Wilson
I don't like Elric. I tried to, I've read like half the books, but no cigar.
Thomas Ramirez
Quite a few but from different publishers.
The core saga of Elric was done.
Corum and Hawkmoon were also done.
The bibliography while influential is a chronological mess.
Wyatt Powell
I just found the dreaming city and the new run

any way thanks for sharing
looks cool. I´m always a sucker for fantasy comics
do you know any other classic series?
Chase Brown
France=/=UK.
Evan Nguyen
oh by the way. what should I read first the new run or dreaming city?
Luke Cox
I'm with you, I can see how impressive its writing is, and how ridiculously influential, but it just doesn't do it for me. It might just be that so many people have been stealing its best bits for forty years, which blunts its impact; although I did read it twenty-five years ago, so maybe not?
Josiah Russell
Just one thread. Just ONE without some Sup Forums-tard shitting it up. That's all I ask.
Hunter Gray
Can't say about any other classic series in comic books other than the ones that everyone has talked about time and again.
In terms of novels, try the wheel of time series if you have a spare month on hand to digest it all.
>oh by the way. what should I read first the new run or dreaming city?
>Reading the dreaming city first
OH SHIT NIGGA WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
No. Either start with the original adaptation of Elric of Melnibone or read the Ruby Throne/ Stormbringer First.
Dreaming City is the first Elric story but it's the midpoint chronologically.
Isaiah Scott
Has there ever been a Nine Princes in Amber comic?
Hunter Moore
The google fu is weak with you.

Speaking of that, is Moorcock the one who came up with all the Law/Order dualism or it was a thing before?
Levi Sanders
There are prior usages, Poul Anderson's Three Hearts and Three Lions did something similar, but Moorcock's Elric was the real breakout for the concept into wider awareness. Also the eight-pointed star banner (seen in WH40k) comes directly from Moorcock's work.
Luis Jones
That was Poul Anderson which Moorcock admitted was an influence on him.
Has it right.
Also, while the concept of the multiverse was already in use by the time The Eternal Champion was written, the concept of of one being having multiple facets of itself in every existence is(even today) pretty novel and trippy.
Dominic Peterson
I think it was Moorock that made the point that Law and Chaos aren't necessarily divided as good and evil but rather focus and direction versus possibility and imagination. Wished he had expanded on this in the original saga but growing pains and whatnot.
John Allen

Overrated
Adam Torres
Thanks.
