Roy Thomas & Tom Grindberg are working on a new Conan project for Dark Horse Comics!

Tom Grindberg posted on his Facebook page that he is working with Roy Thomas on a new Conan project for Dark Horse Comics. He also posted that it will be an adaptation of a Conan story by Robert E. Howard.

The project is still in the proposal stage, so the exact story and the format (limited series, graphic novel, etc.) are being kept under wraps for now. Grindberg said "My aim is to bring back this character to its original glory from the pulps!"

If you are not familiar with Grindberg's work, checkout the interview with him on the ALL PULP blog from 2012.

A sample Tarzan strip by Thomas & Grindberg is shown below.
The full strip is available from the ERB Online Comics service.

Dark Horse plans to reprint the Thomas/Grindberg Tarzan strip at some point in the future.

Thanks to Deuce Richardson for the tip!
