Written by Roy Thomas, J.M. DeMatteis, and Bruce Jones. Art by Gil Kane and Ernie Chan. Cover by Gil Kane.

The incomparable Gil Kane (Green Lantern, Amazing Spider-Man, Blackmark) is featured in this special 240-page Chronicles of Conan volume-our thickest offering yet! Joining storyteller J.M. DeMatteis on Conan the Barbarian #127, Gil Kane's short but stellar Conan run in 1981 and 1982 thrust readers into a new era of magical quests, strange creatures, and inventive fantasy adventures.

In Chronicles of Conan: The Creation Quest and Other Stories, Kane collaborates with DeMatteis, Bruce Jones, and longtime colleague Roy Thomas.

In addition to a DeMatteis introduction-an engaging, behind-the-scenes look at his years working on Conan-Roy Thomas provides another insightful afterword, as he discusses working with Gil Kane on their 38-page "King of the Forgotten People!" collaboration. In addition to the "Creation Quest" story arc, readers will enjoy the meticulously restored color pages found in "The Ring of Rhax," "A Hitch in Time," and the heartbreaking "Snow Haired Woman of the Wastes"-where Robert E. Howard's mighty barbarian finds himself unraveling horrific mysteries and testing his thresholds of pain and mental fortitude!

Volume 18 - 1st printing. "Isle of the Dead and Other Stories!" Collects Conan the Barbarian (1970-1993 Marvel) #135-142.

Written by Bruce Jones and Steven Grant. Art by John Buscema, Ernie Chan, Mark Silvestr, Alfredo Alcala and Val Mayerik. Cover by John Buscema.

Taking over writing duties on Conan the Barbarian in the early 1980s, Bruce Jones brought his humor and horror sensibilities-as well as his knack for telling great short stories-to the title, invigorating John Buscema, who returned to work on the series with Conan #136.

In The Chronicles of Conan: Isle of the Dead and Other Stories, these two comic-book titans lead Conan on a thrilling tour of Hyboria-from the monster-infested Bossonian Marshes to the hideous slave markets of Belthem-as Conan encounters strange, supernatural foes, beguiling women, and overconfident rulers. Stories like "The River of Death," "Titan's Gambit," and the two-part "Spider Isle" adventure are meticulously restored and recolored, and Jones and Buscema are joined by such talents as Ernie Chan, Mark Silvestri, Val Mayerik, Alfredo Alcala, and others.

Softcover, 200 pages, full color.

Writers Mary Jo Duffy, Alan Zelenetz, and Michael Fleisher also contribute one-shot stories to this collection, which finds Conan facing the Dragon of Solvanthia, numerous witches and wizards, rat demons, bloodthirsty swordsmen, and his own son by a priestess of the Cimmerian wilderness!

The wandering barbarian will also have to keep his wits about him if he is to keep from becoming a statue in a madwoman's collection in "The Cauldron of Doom!"

Conan will need all the allies he can muster if he is to survive a witch that commands a demon arm, a man-mountain known as Gargantax, and a crafty immortal who would remain that way at all costs! But will helping Conan be a one-way ticket to the afterlife for Fafnir and the rest of Conan's allies? This volume collects Conan the Barbarian issues with new colors, an insightful foreword, and new art by Ernie Chan!
