Conan the Barbarian (Newspaper strips)

by PBC

Jason Momoa

As "Khal Drogo" in "Game of thrones"

Conan the Barbarian is back on big screens, however this time not featuring Arnold Schwarzeneger, but Joseph Jason Namakaeha Momoa (born August 1, 1979), a Hawaiian actor. In 2010, he appeared in the Emmy-nominated HBO series "Game of Thrones" (2011) playing the Dothraki King, "Khal Drogo". First time, I saw him in this serial. Recommending watching this serial who missed it.
Mainly due to Jason Mamoa, planning to watch this film.

While checking my e-collection found these 4 strips of Conan. All credits go to original scanning person(s). Enjoy!
