Conan the Barbarian Omnibus HC (2018-2023 Marvel) 1st Edition 7A-1ST NM 9.4

Leinil Francis Yu Cover

Volume 7 - 1st printing. Collects Conan the Barbarian (1970-1993 Marvel) #172-194 and Conan the Barbarian (1970-1993 Marvel) ANNUAL #10-11.

Written by Jim Owsley (a.k.a. Christopher Priest) and Don Kraar. Art by John Buscema, Mike Docherty, Val Semeiks, Bob Camp, Pablo Marcos, Dave Simons, Geof Isherwood, and Ernie Chan. Cover by Leinil Francis Yu.

He was the writer that would put Black Panther back on the map of popularity in the late '90s, but in the '80s, Christopher Priest was editing-and writing-tales of Conan the Barbarian!

The seventh volume in this popular Omnibus series collects the first half of Priest's run, as the writer assembles a cast of engaging supporting characters around Conan, including the haunted Tetra and the courageous Captain Delmuro, sending them in pursuit of treasure held by the wicked thief, Keiv.

Priest also introduces to the color series one of the great super-villains in Marvel's Conan mythos-the Devourer of Souls. The dark reaver is one of Conan's most formidable foes, and their legendary battles begin here!
