Conan

A six-issue comic series from Ace Books, Conan (1978–1979) brought the Cimmerian barbarian to a new publisher under the steady hand of writer Roy Thomas. Featuring the distinctive artwork of Barry Windsor-Smith (credited here as Barry Smith), this run continued the classic Marvel-style adaptation of Robert E. Howard's character, offering a concise, visually striking take on the Hyborian Age. While brief, it stands as a notable chapter in Conan's publishing history, bridging the character's transition between major publishers.
