5.0 out of 5 stars Conan Lives!, 22 Feb 2009
By I. R. Kerr (Lancashire) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
There are 4 main geniuses behind these tales, writer Roy Thomas, artists John Buscema and Alfredo Alcala and, of course, Robert E. Howard.
Roy Thomas is a great fan of Howard's work and that shows in these brilliant adaptations of several of Howard's greatest Conan stories including Shadows in Zamboula, The Devil in Iron, the Slithering Shadow, an epic 4 part version of The People of The Black Circle and one of my favourite tales The Tower of The Elephant that Thomas had already adapted before for the Conan The Barbarian comic.
He also adapts several of Howard's other tales including The Country of the Knife and The Gods of Bal-Sagoth to include Conan. The artwork largely by Big John Buscema and Alfredo Alcala is stunning and when needed quite brutal in bringing to life Conan's fights, his wanderings through snowy mountains, across vast deserts and lost cities as he fights opposing armies, cannibals, elder-gods and a whole host of wizards to save the lives of scantily clad maidens.
These tales were originally presented in black & white so the only thing you miss out on is scale as the original magazines were much larger. Although he died young the imaginative works of Robert E. Howard will live on far into the future, check out Howard's complete Conan collection. The complete chronicles of Conan: Centenary edition

5.0 out of 5 stars classic comics, 21 May 2008
a wonderful collection of early black and white conan. a bit grittier and more earthy than the stories in the colour comic. and such good value. classic art from buscema alcala and others. if i wanted to critisise i surpose that the paper quality is a bit poorer than vol.1, and it would have been nice to see all the covers in colour, but as a total value package it can't really be faulted. if you like comics, if you like conan and the writing of roy thomas you'll love this....and the price.
