Don't try to compare Tolkien VS Howard by the movies of theirs tales,,,,, read them,............ My winner is Howard
-
almost an entire montage of people looking down.

While Howard is the creator of "sword and sorcery" fantasy, Tolkien was the creator of "high fantasy", so while he probably was inspired by Howard, Tolkien's fantasy is still somehwat different to Howard.
Either way, I love both authors, and both of them should be credited as the duo that created fantasy in general. They're not only two of the greatest fantasy writers of all time, but two of the greatest writers of all time in general.
HAIL CONAN THE CIMMERIAN, AND HAIL BILBO BAGGINS!!!!!!!!!!

Tolkien came years after Howard, and yes he was taking his cues from Howard...just about everything Fantasy related was borrowed from Howard, even to this day nobody fleshes out a character in so few words as howard did...he was by far one of the most influential writers who ever lived!
-
40 years ago, I got hooked on conan, and no action writer, can equal him. he was the best of the best.
-
I think the still at 1:37 is my all time fav... I love the look in his eyes... *sigh*
-
He has created the greatest character in the world,i have all the books about Conan,great,great fantasy!!!I belive that,like Tolkin he has conntected to some other reality where sword and magik rule the world...a better place perhaps no utube thou

I disagree, you obviously aren't up to speed on Conan.
Conan never rapes a woman and only kills when he is betrayed via capture.
Some of the other characters are more open to rapine, in fact in one of the story's an adventurer in the desert considers raping the girl he's rescued having killed her captors, but decides not to when she is completely innocent to the ways of the world.

...did you know Howard is credited with creating the genre 'Sword and Sorcery'? So in a sense Tolkein, if writing Sword & Sorcery, is taking his cues from Robert E. Howard, awesome huh?!

...Imagine a warhorse galloping down a pier, flecks of foam flying from the bit in it's mouth. A blood drenched warrior on it's back. The steed launches into the air at the end of the dock to land with its last ounce of strength in the middle of a vicious band of pirates on the deck of a ship. The dying horse collapses throwing the rider into the band of angry and surprized outlaws. The rider, sword drawn, starts cutting a swarth of human carnage through the startled group. CONAN HAS ARRIVED!!!
