ROBERT E. HOWARD DAYS 2021 

ROBERT E. HOWARD DAYS will take place on June 11th & 12th at The Robert E. Howard Museum in Cross Plains, Texas!

Project Pride of Cross Plains and the City of Cross Plains, in conjunction with The Robert E. Howard Foundation, have determined conditions have improved enough to host the event this year.

And Roy Thomas has agreed to return as our Guest of Honor as we celebrate 50 - uh, 51 Years of REH in Comics!

Over the next week we will be firming up our events, activities and programming, so stay tuned for those via the various social media sites. Look for all of the "regular" happenings to occur.

As we move forward with programming, we need to inform you that all these announcements, plans and schedules are subject to change. With the pandemic news and health procedures changing week to week, please be aware that Howard Days could be altered. But we are proceeding with our plans for this year, based on currently available information. These decisions are being closely monitored and we will keep everyone posted via various social media. Please note that we will abide by whatever regulations are set forth by the City of Cross Plains at the time of Howard Days.

As of today, Howard Days is happening on June 11th & 12th. 

We hope to see you in Cross Plains and we're looking forward to The Best Two Days in Howard Fandom!

Y'all come!

CONAN THE BARBARIAN BY JIM ZUB VOL. 1:
INTO THE CRUCIBLE TPB

Now available!

Written by Jim Zub
Penciled by Rogê Antônio, Robert Gill & Luca Pizzari
Cover by E.M. GIST

Unfamiliar ground! Conan has faced many foes since leaving Cimmeria, but the greatest challenge lies ahead — in the mystical Uttara Kuru, farther on the eastern border than the young barbarian has ever traveled! When Conan inadvertently agrees to be the latest entrant to the Great Crucible, the people of the city support their foreign champion — but what deadly dangers does the Crucible hold, and what will Conan sacrifice to overcome his ordeal? Armed with only his strength and wits and a local boy named Delian to translate for him, Conan must survive a series of lethal traps and a cadre of murderous rivals out to end his participation — permanently! But when the barbarian sets his sights on the Tooth of the Nightstar, will he claim the deadly blade, or will it claim him?
