Proposal: A /coc/ comic adaptation of Jim Theis's The Eye of Argon, or an illustrated digital edition of same. Yea or Nay?

Why? Why in the name of Jesus H. Christ would you give that book an adaptation?

I'm interested to see how artists interpret Jim Theis's, ah, unique approach to descriptive imagery. Case in point:

>The barbarian seated himself upon a stool at the wenches side, exposing his body, naked save for a loin cloth brandishing a long steel broad sword...

>> No. 39190
>>39169

>Glaring directly down towards her was the stoney, cycloptic face of the bloated diety. Gaping from its single obling socket was scintillating, many fauceted scarlet emerald, a brilliant gem seeming to possess a life all of its own. A priceless gleaming stone, capable of domineering the wealth of conquering empires...the eye of Argon.
