Free Comic Book Script - The Fan by Stephen Sonneveld
Theme: Crom Myth
11 Pages
The Fan Summary:
After killing a corrupt former Vizir who embezzled tax money, Crom the Barbarian returns the stolen treasure to a Sultan’s court—only to find himself once again entangled in palace politics and injustice. Disguised in local robes, Crom visits a nearby village and befriends a spirited boy named Tuli, who idolizes him. The villagers suffer under oppressive double taxation and abuses by the new Vizir.
When goats escape and eat the Sultan’s grain, the boy sneaks into the palace to see Crom but is caught and accused of theft. The Sultan demands executions, prompting Crom to slaughter the court guards, Vizir, and the Sultan himself in a righteous fury. In the aftermath, Crom crowns young Tuli as the new Sultan, declaring that his mother, Frouda, should act as his advisor. Crom delivers the stolen grain and carts back to the villagers in the boy’s name, quietly restoring justice and leaving without fanfare.
