Wednesday Worlds of Wonder BRAK THE BARBARIAN "Unspeakable Shrine" Conclusion

When Last We Left Our Barbarian...

...it's not a synopsis, but the Steve Gan art was too kool for me not to present it!

Anyway on with the story...

Afraid not, Septegundus! 

This story in Marvel's Savage Tales V1N8 (1975) was the finale for Brak's graphic story adventures!

Unlike other barbarian/high adventure characters, Brak was never reprinted or revived.

OTOH, he fared better than Lin Carter's Jandar of Callisto!

There was a text feature in the previous issue of Savage Tales about the multi-volume John Carter/Carson of Venus pastiche by the noted fantasy author being adapted by Marvel.

Unfortunately, except for a couple of promo pieces, there was never any work done on the projected strip.

Wednesday Worlds of Wonder BRAK THE BARBARIAN "Unspeakable Shrine" Part One

Though Brak was the least-successful of Marvel's early 1970s barbarian horde...

...it wasn't for lack of trying, as this never-reprinted story from Marvel's Savage Tales V1N7 (1974) demonstrates!

To Be Continued

Next Issue

(I Mean Next Week!)

Doug Moench and Steve Gan both went on to other kool high-adventure projects at Marvel!

Doug scripted the b/w Doc Savage series (considered by many, myself included, to be the best comics version of the Man of Bronze) and Steve worked on Tarzan, Conan, co-created Skull the Slayer, and co-created the Guardians of the Galaxy's own Peter Quill/StarLord!

Reading Room MARVEL PREVIEW "The Star-Lord: Who He Is and How He Came to Be"

The lead character of the new Guardians of the Galaxy movie (opening tomorrow) was quite different...

...when he debuted in the b/w magazine Marvel Preview #4 (1976)

How different?

Let co-creator Steve Englehart tell you...

You can read a follow-up article by Englehart explaining how things might have proceeded if he had stayed on the strip HERE.
