Howard's classic sword-and-sorcery tales of the Cimmerian warrior. It features the work of writer Roy Thomas and artist Barry Windsor-Smith, presenting Conan's adventures in the Hyborian Age with a mix of gritty action and detailed fantasy art.
"The Coming of Conan!" kicks off with the barbarian warrior in the midst of a brutal clash on a Hyperborean battlefield, where he faces down the villain Malachi after a tense exchange with the enigmatic god Borri Borri. Roy Thomas and Barry Smith deliver a raw, mythic introduction to Conan’s legend, with Barry Windsor-Smith’s striking cover capturing the moment’s primal intensity.
In the frozen wastes of a Hyperborean battlefield, Conan stands amid the clash of steel and sorcery, facing the grim god Borri Borri in a moment of eerie stillness before the storm. As blood paints the snow and ancient forces awaken, the Cimmerian confronts Malachi in a clash that will echo through legend.
