Grognak the Barbarian

Grognak the Barbarian is a book in Fallout 3. Reading it adds one point to the player's melee skill. It seems to have been a popular item with children before the Great War, as it is given to the player as a gift for his birthday and as the topic of a question asked on the G.O.A.T. Exam.

Trivia
The image of Grognak on the front cover of the comic is the same as the art used to represent the Barbarian class in TES: Oblivion, only edited to look like a cartoon.

The cover of the Grognak The Barbarian comic seems to be an homage to the cover of the 1984 comic book, The Saga of Crystar #8, published by Marvel Comics. Besides Fallout 3, The cover of The Saga of Crystar #8 also inspired Glenn Danzig, as he would use the Skull on the cover as his logo for his bands Samhain and Danzig.
