Unfettered by the Comics Code, experience Conan at his most visceral in the original epic comic magazine The Savage Sword of Conan! The dark and gritty tales within are perfect for Conan fans looking for that extra bit of bloody violence!

Crom! This inaugural volume ushers in a line of definitive Savage Sword of Conan collections. Full-colour covers, letters pages, pinups, extensive articles and reviews on Conan, his world and his creator β€” everything's included and no one is spared the vengeance of Conan!

After the breakout success of Conan's colour comic, the legendary sword-and-sorcery saga of Robert E. Howard's hero expanded into the oversized black-and-white magazine format. In lushly illustrated novel-length adventures with all the drama, violence, and allure the comic book medium can offer, writer Roy Thomas and greatest artists of the era craft a host of Conan classics. Enjoy Barry Windsor-Smith's 'Red Nails' and John Buscema's 'Black Colossus' and 'A Witch Shall Be Born', featuring the infamous Tree of Death.
