Born on a battlefield, trained to be a warrior, destined to
be King, he rode from the north, searching for adventure and
dealing death to any that stood in his way. His name was preceded
by legend and none could stand against his strength and cunning...
Robert
E. Howard's creation returns in The Conan Chronicles.
The first volume collects some of the early works written
and illustrated by Roy Thomas and Barry Windsor-Smith. This
collection features fully restored text and completely remastered
colour - and it looks fantastic. Titan should be giving themselves
a pat on the back for a wonderful repro job.
It
looks stunning, the stories are extremely engaging and it
has aged incredibly well - these issues first went on sale
in the early 1970s.
If
you've never read a Conan story before, this is a great place
to start. The attention to detail in both the art and script
is sure to hook you straight away.
The
stories included here are adapted from Robert E. Howard's
legendary stories. And for those of you interested in how
this series originally came about, there are several pages
of text by Roy Thomas on how everything was kick-started.
It also gives a brief insight into what the working conditions
were like at Marvel in the '70s.
One
of the most impressive pieces of art I have seen in ages.
Breathtaking.
