From Doug Ellis:

Among the over 80 issues of Weird Tales (most featuring stories or poems by Robert E. Howard, and many with work from H.P. Lovecraft and Clark Ashton Smith) that will be in the Glenn Lord estate auction being held on Friday night, April 6, 2018, at the upcoming Windy City Pulp and Paper Convention (April 6-8, 2018, at the Westin Lombard Yorktown Center) are these two. The one on the left is the July 1925 issue, featuring Robert E. Howard's first story for that pulp -- "Spear and Fang," And as the cover for the issue on the right (dated April 1926) proclaims, Howard's story "Wolfshead" is in that one.

Each creative team will have the freedom to draw the Cimmerian their own way.

The first graphic novel, LE COLOSSE NOIR, will be published in May 2018.
It will adapt "Black Colossus."
The creative team is Vincent Brugeas, Kellee Riley, and Toulhoat.
