Showcasing the work of fan favorites Timothy Truman and Tomás Giorello, this action-packed omnibus includes stories such as "The Hand of Nergal," an unfinished fragment by creator Robert E. Howard; the powerful "Black Colossus," in which Conan tries his hand at being a professional warrior; and a series of tales which detail the Cimmerian's return to his homeland and his familial roots. Also featuring guest artist and horror master Richard Corben, this is an essential addition to any Conan fan's library!

THE CHRONICLES OF CONAN VOLUME 34: 
  BETRAYAL IN ZAMORA AND OTHER STORIES
Arriving in comic shops March 15!


by Roy Thomas (Author), Mike Docherty (Illustrator), Ricardo Villagrán (Illustrator), Alfredo Alcala (Illustrator), Ernie Chan (Illustrator)

One step ahead of a vengeful Kothian army, Conan leads a fleeing mercenary band into the dread Dark Valley, a necropolis once throned by a demon slain by Conan himself. But while the demon may be dead, waiting silently in the darkness is an empty suit of armor, waiting only for an unwary host to bring back into the world the armor's owner . . . the malefic Devourer of Souls!

The Chronicles of Conan reaches its final titanic volume, collecting classic Conan the Barbarian tales never-before collected and unavailable for nearly a quarter of a century.

Trade paperback, 7x10,  232 pages, Full Color, $19.99

Swords Against Darkness
Coming April 26!

Flashing swords and fearsome magicks . . . high adventure and wondrous wizardry . . . dread monsters and vast rewards . . .

Tales of sword and sorcery at their best offer keen wit, ingenious perception, freewheeling imagination, and canny invention.
