From 2 months ago. Interestingly, I found an extra line in my Stormbringer copy, where after Elric encounters the Lords of Chaos, he briefly falters in his resolve, feeling compelled to fling himself to their feet to beg for forgiveness. In the new line, he mentions how his loneliness and longing seemed to have just reached a boiling point, and how all he wanted at the moment was to be protected and cared for, even by these creatures, who would surely offer protection. And I kinda like that. Shows how much familiarity can be dangerous sometimes, but he's just so done with it all and wants nothing more than to feel safe.

I’ve seen Twilight for the first time recently and Michael Sheen would’ve been a great cast for Yyrkoon in an Elric movie

I just finished the first book, and Elric, left his uncle Yyrkoon of all people, in charge while he went off on a journey. Yeah, Elric, you're so smart.

Before I started reading Sword and Sorcery in general, I thought Conan was supposed to be the stupid one and Elric the smart one; I suppose it’s actually the other way around. I do like Elric for his deep reflections on morality, but he isn't exactly the sharpest tool in the shed.

I still love him though. his cousin*** my bad

"The Dragon Lord." Elric poster by Rodney Matthews (1976). Later licensed by Roxcalibur for their album Lords of the NWOBHM (2011).

Rodney Matthews is probably best known as a rock musician and album-cover artist who played at the first two Glastonbury festivals, so it's fitting that Elric looks like he's about to shred a mad solo on Stormbringer.

Book collection

10 Upvotes

Hey guys! Sorry this isn’t explicitly Elric based but I’ve been gathering a collection of Moorcocks books and own both massive collections for Elric and Corum and wanted to expand myself more in the universe, I have the first eternal champion book with a plan to get the other (2?), that being said I want to know more about the other characters he’s written story’s about. I place an order through my favorite local bookstore when I’m home from college and am known for ordering strange books (goodnight punpun, banana fish, etc), I need to know what books to actually order because I know his works are split into different chunks so if I can get a collection rather than smaller books I’m just not sure what to ask for. I think the next character I wish to dive into/and series to collect is von bek because seems just as legendary as corum (maybe not Elric tho), if there’s any other characters you recommend looking into I’d love to hear recommendations too!

It is for a Pentel brand-related challenge. As for the green flame, I never used oil pastels before , they felt a bit like crayon 🤔

The 'mural' version. I like this one significantly less than the first one, but I did promise to yall I'd finish it.

"A Farewell to Imrryr" or my first attempt at full color scene after 2 months of drawing. I know it is bad, I just love Elric.

Before I read Stormbringer, chronological or published order?

Hey all. I'm getting into Elric, and I'm sure this comes up a lot. I am reading through the Stealer of Souls and I love it. But I'm wondering if I should hold off and pick up the Saga books.

would you recommend continuing through Stealer, or going back first?

Yeah, had to get it out of my system, even if I kinda dislike the art itself. (might do a remake soon or maybe even next year)

Do not ask about the logistics of Stormbringer against a lightsaber, please. It just looks cool, and coolness overrides all common sense lol


r/ElricofMelnibone • • 13d ago

Is there a place which collects the various visual interpretations of the appearance of Stormbringer? I am looking for an illustration that adheres to Moorcock's as closely as possible. This would used as prop in an RPG adventure I intend to run.

Which swords did Stormbringer primarily influence?

Post image

I can't recall many swords off the top of my head, aside from a few from the world of Game of Thrones, the Dragonslayer from Berserk, and Stormbringer.

Which is strange, because I'm really into fantasy.

I would expect myself to remember more swords.

Don't worry, I'll finish the other variant as well, since you guys liked it. I added text from both stories and combined them to flow together through the scene.
