UNHOLY SPAWN OF THE SERPENTINE PATH -- THE SONS OF SET -- THE SERPENT MEN!

PIC(S) INFO: Spotlight on panels of the dreaded Serpent Men, a fictional race created by Robert E. Howard for his King Kull tales, and were later adapted for the "Conan the Barbarian" Vol 1. comic-book series by Roy Thomas and Marie Severin over at Marvel Comics in the early '70s.

MINI-OVERVIEW: "Serpent Men are humanoids with scaled skin and snake-like heads. They possess magical abilities, the most common of which is the use of illusion to disguise themselves as a human. In some stories, the ghost of someone killed by a Serpent Man becomes the Serpent Man's slave. Due to the shape of their mouths, Serpent Men cannot utter the phrase "Ka nama kaa lajerama." Robert E. Howard's character Kull uses the phrase as a shibboleth in the story "The Shadow Kingdom.""
