Apart from the from the eyes, I’m not really seeing an issue there (and blue eyes can look black under some lighting conditions). Conan is supposed to be some sort of ancient Irishman after all; I don’t think the Mr. Olympia spray-on tan look is quite what Howard had in mind when he would describe his barbarian hero as “bronzed” or “brown.” Admittedly, the cover doesn’t direct attention to Conan’s “great, hairy chest,” but then almost no artwork ever has so far as I can recall.
