Conan the Barbarian: The Original Marvel Years Omnibus #1 kicks off with "The Sword and the Sorcerers!"—a pulse-pounding tale written by Roy Thomas and Robert E. Howard, illustrated by Barry Smith with inks by Sal Buscema and Dan Adkins, and colored by Mimi Gold. When Conan rescues Lady Aztrias of Numalia from wolves, she hires him to steal a mysterious bowl from the wealthy merchant Kallian—only for Conan to find the bowl empty and Kallian dead, with the city guard closing in and Aztrias accusing him of murder. The real threat lies within the bowl itself: a serpent-man with a human head, and a vision of the ancient sorcerer Thoth-Amon looms ahead. The cover, by John Cassaday, captures the moment with striking intensity.
