Synopsis "Conan the Barbarian: The Original Comics Omnibus Vol.1"

For fans of Conan old and new, and a perfect way to discover the adventures of the famous Cimmerian, this is the definitive collection of Marvel's classic 1970s Conan the Barbarian. Born on a battlefield in the frozen lands of Cimmeria, Conan fights his way through the untamed kingdoms of the Hyborian Age, sparing no man, woman or wizard his wrath. His adventures will become legend and he will become king. Writer Roy Thomas and artist Barry Windsor-Smith brought Robert E. Howard's iconic creation to four-color life with work that set new standards for comic book storytelling. This oversized Omnibus begins an historic series of collections of the original 1970 Conan the Barbarian comic book series with each issue painstakingly restored to match the majesty of the original editions. In these early exploits, a young Conan ventures from his homeland for the first time, honing his skills as a thief, mercenary, pirate and above all, warrior!
