Conan's phenomenal popularity in the early comics series Conan the Barbarian
would soon reach new heights thanks to a supplementary publication whose very
name would come to represent quality in epic-fantasy storytelling - The Savage
Sword of Conan! These pulp tomes would become an inspiration to generations of
Conan fans, containing some of the best adaptations and pastiches of Robert E.
Howard's work ever to be seen in sequential form. Now for the first time ever,
these stories are being collected in a series of omnibus-style books, with over
five hundred pages of classic sword and sorcery-for the complete Conan
collector!
Included in this volume are tales featuring the stunning art of such comics
luminaries as Barry Windsor-Smith, John Buscema, Alfredo Alcala, Jim Starlin,
Al Milgrom, Pablo Marcos, Walter Simonson, and many more, including a
heart-stopping adaptation of the classic Howard tale "The Jewels of
Gwahlur."
