> It's silly to the reader (and especially to an adult reader) but it's also obvious why this was present: the comic was meant for kids, and also Marvel never know when they might be getting a brand new reader who is totally unfamiliar with the character.
The same was present in any serials such as Conan.
There is a description of Conan and where he comes from, how black his hair is, how manly he, how he is the "noble savage "etc. every story.
Conan is definitely not for children. It verges on erotica in many of the stories e.g. in one story there is a older woman whipping a younger teenage girl while tied up and it is made known to the reader the teenage girl is "young" with the implication that she is probably 14 or 15.
Also every Conan story typically ends up with him using sheer overwhelming aggression to defeat super natural entities and then escape with the girl.
I with there was more "King Conan" stuff. But it is a property that Hollywood doesn't really understand.
