Volume 1 -1st printing. "Tower of the Elephant and other stories!" Collects Conan the Barbarian (1970-1993 Marvel) #1-8.

Written by Roy Thomas. Art by Barry Windsor-Smith, Sal Buscema, Frank Giacoia, Tom Sutton, and Tom Palmer. Cover by Barry Windsor-Smith and John Verpoorten.

In the early 1970s, Robert E. Howard's Conan the Barbarian exploded on to the comics scene. Writer Roy Thomas teamed with a young artist named Barry Smith, and together the two mapped out some of the most stirring and memorable Conan adventures to come along since those written by Howard himself. Over the course of their 24 issue run together, Thomas and Smith defined Conan for a generation of comics readers, and now those stories are collected here in a series of trade paperbacks.

Featuring completely remastered color and text corrections, and containing material not available for nearly thirty years, these books are the perfect companions to the upcoming all-new Conan series from Dark Horse.

Written by Roy Thomas. Art by Barry Windsor-Smith and Sal Buscema. Cover by Barry Windsor-Smith.

Compiling the early Conan the Barbarian stories by writer Roy Thomas and artist Barry Windsor-Smith, this collection contains some of the most powerful and compelling comic stories ever created.

Following Robert E. Howard's pulp hero Conan through the early part of his life, Thomas and Windsor-Smith (then going by the name "Barry Smith") wove together pieces of the fantasy, horror, and science fiction genres, all built around the framework of Howard's original fiction. Featuring completely re-mastered color and text corrections, these stories have been unavailable in color since their original publication, nearly thirty years ago.

A must for Conan fans and art afficionados alike.

Volume 3 - 1st printing. "Monster of the Monoliths and other stories!" Collects Conan the Barbarian (1970-1993 Marvel) #14-15 and #17-21.

Written by Roy Thomas, Michael Moorcock and James Cawthorn. Art by Barry Windsor-Smith, Gil Kane, Sal Buscema, Ralph Reese, Dan Adkins, Craig Russell, and Val Mayerik.

This is the third volume in a series collecting the early Conan comic-book stories by Roy Thomas and Barry Windsor-Smith.

Originally created in the 1930s, Robert E. Howard's Conan the Barbarian has survived to emerge as one of this century's most powerful and popular characters. Even more impressive than the character's lasting appeal over the past seven decades, is the caliber of talent involved in all of the various Conan incarnations. Of those, there are few that speak as clearly and as uniquely as artist Barry Windsor-Smith. Over the course of these early stories, Windsor-Smith's stunning evolution from comic-book cartoonist to full-fledged artist is apparent and thrilling to behold.

This volume features completely remastered color.

Written by Roy Thomas and Barry Windsor-Smith. Art by Barry Windsor-Smith, John Buscema, Sal Buscema, Dan Adkins, Chic Stone, John Severin, and Ernie Chan [as Ernie Chua]. Cover by Barry Windsor-Smith.

Volume four collects the end of Roy Thomas and Barry Windsor-Smith's seminal run on Conan the Barbarian. As with any collaboration between two extremely talented artists, before their partnership on Conan came to an end, Thomas and Windsor-Smith were producing the finest work of their careers up to that point. And like those great collaborations, we're left to wonder, "what if they'd stayed together?"

This compilation features two outstanding creators at the top of their game, working on a compelling character who's popularity has never faded. Also included is the first issue of acclaimed artist John Buscema's definitive run. Collecting issues 23 through 26 of the original Marvel series and material from the second and third issues of Savage Tales, originally published in the 1970s.

As an added bonus, this volume features Richard Isonove, colorist of Marvel's Origin: The True Story of Wolverine and Neil Gaiman's 1602, bringing to life Thomas and Windsor-Smith's ultimate masterpiece, Red Nails.
