...Indianasmith.

Robert E. Howard, famous for creating Conan, Red Sonja and Krull, also created the lesser known character of Solomon Kane, a puritan adventurer who battled various dark and unholy forces in the world of  Olde England.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solomon_Kane

Apparently there's a movie of him on netflix, I make no claims to the quality of it and have heard fans say it isn't very canon, but still, a movie about a righteous puritan adventurer might be up indy's ally.




Know a movie someone here might like? Tag it to them on this thread!

Apparently there is some dispute over the "canonality" of this movie.  It seems Howard may nit have created an origin for Kane and how he became the man he was in the stories.  So, this movie is the background on Kane and what made him the dour puritan adventurer he was in the stories Howard wrote.

Reviews for it are all over the place.

I saw this several years ago and rather enjoyed it, as I recall.  Thanks.

I think I may have picked up a complete edition of Soloman Kane tales in Barnes & Noble Indy if you fancy looking for them.

Wasn't there a comic book about him in the 70's?

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.
