As St. John is remembered for Edgar Rice Burroughs and Tarzan, I would like to be remembered for REH and Conan. I feel a certain sense of loss that Howard isn't alive to appreciate what I've done with Conan." --Frank Frazetta View: Robert E. Howard's Conan: The Frazetta Cover Series #2, Cover Robert E.
