The greatest saga in sword-and-sorcery history begins! Born on a battlefield in the frozen lands of Cimmeria, Conan has spent his life fighting his way across the untamed Hyborian kingdoms -- sparing no man, woman or wizard his wrath. His adventures will become legend. He will become king. He is...Conan the Barbarian! Roy Thomas and Barry Windsor-Smith brought Robert E. Howard's iconic creation to four-color lifewith work that set new standards for comic book storytelling. Now, Marvel is honored to present their epic sagas -- painstakingly restored to match the majesty of the original editions. In these early exploits, Conan ventures from his homeland for the first time, honing his skills as a thief and mercenary-- and above all, a warrior!
