Conan - Barbaren

The Swedish publisher Atlantic Förlags AB launched Conan - Barbaren in 1983, adapting the iconic Robert E. Howard character into a local comic series. Drawing on the talents of Roy Thomas, John Buscema, and fantasy authors Lin Carter and L. Sprague de Camp, this single-issue release brought the Hyborian Age to a Scandinavian audience. It stands as a concise, culturally specific entry in the global Conan comics tradition, notable for its blend of American comics craftsmanship with European publishing.
