I actually had the pleasure of a Glorantha fan in Japan sending me a
Dojinshi (essentially, a Manga made by an Amateur group) based off of the
events in Dragon pass circa 1625. The particular Manga I have shows Argrath
and crew making their first encounter with Harrek, and Argrath and Harrek
having a duel on a viking-style longship! Argrath uses some kind of Dragon
magic to defeat Harrek, and he's shown as a young in his teens. They show a
Duck! Some Humakti fellow, and a woman whom I take to be Gunda. If I can
ever find the damn thing, I'll scan it and throw it up onto a website.
Are there any archives of Gloranthan art?
BTW, the illos in King of Dragon Pass were a joy, although I imagined
Orlanth as having brown hair and looking like Gibson's William Wallace. :)
