About this Collection

This collection presents the 2019 Marvel adaptation of Robert E. Howard's original Conan novel, The Hour of the Dragon, scripted by Roy Thomas with art by Mike Mignola. It follows Conan as king of Aquilonia facing a supernatural conspiracy that threatens his throne and his life, blending classic sword-and-sorcery with Mignola's distinctive gothic style. The volume collects the five-issue miniseries from 2019.

In "The Hour of the Dragon," Conan infiltrates the forbidden temples of Stygia, emerging with the fabled Heart of Ahriman. As he returns to Aquilonia, his enemies—Xaltotun and his allies—rally to stop him, while Tarascus prepares to defend his throne and Valerius falls into a deadly trap. Written by Roy Thomas and brought to life with dynamic art by John Buscema and inks by The Tribe, this pivotal issue sees Conan’s long march toward reclaiming his kingdom reach its climax. The cover, a striking collaboration by Gil Kane, John Romita, and Tom Sutton, captures the moment of high tension and impending destiny.
