Conan le barbare : L'intégrale #1977

This handsome 2020 Panini France omnibus collects Roy Thomas and John Buscema's complete 1977 run of Conan le Barbare, and the cover makes an immediate case for why that year was such a thrill — Conan is shown mid-battle, grappling bare-handed with a massive stone-grey creature while a dark-haired warrior woman fights at his side, sword drawn, with crimson tentacles writhing ominously in the foreground. Thomas's sword-and-sorcery storytelling paired with Buscema's muscular, dynamic linework made for a formidable creative team, and this handsome collection brings it all together in one generous volume for 36€.
