THE ORIGINAL MARVEL YEARS OMNIBUS VOL. 6 HC
Written by Michael Fleisher with John Buscema, Larry Yakata, Priest & Peter B. Gillis
Penciled by John Buscema with Gary Kwapisz, Bob Camp, Val Mayerik, Ernie Chan & Bob Hall
Covers by Paulo Siqueira & John Buscema
In an omnibus extravaganza that covers the entire run of writer Michael Fleisher’s two years on CONAN THE BARBARIAN, artist John Buscema turns in page after page of iconic artwork — often inked by the great Ernie Chan and by Big John himself! Buscema also takes a turn as plotter, helping bring to life a series of exciting stories featuring Conan opposite some of his most mysterious foes and an old friend: the scheming Jergal Zadh, the magic-wielding Alhambra, the conniving Baron Vjerzak and Conan’s old comrade Fafnir!
Plus: Two mighty annuals — one pitting Conan against an ancient mystical menace and the other against a god — and a classic issue of WHAT IF? that asks the question: What if Conan were stranded in the twentieth century?

Conan wasn’t the only Robert E. Howard sword and sorcery icon to be adapted into Marvel Comics! Following Conan’s breakout success, Roy Thomas set his sights on Howard’s legendary barbarian king of Valusia: Kull! Marie Severin and John Severin contributed what many consider the creative highlight of their careers, in tales that showed how uneasy hung the crown on the head of Kull — especially when confronting wicked sorcerer Thulsa Doom! The art of Mike Ploog also features heavily, along with contributions from some of the era’s top talents…including Kull’s first appearance, drawn by comics legend Bernie Wrightson!
