  • Conan Recolored

    A collection of the first eight Marval Conan stories. It's fun to see Roy Thomas and Barry Windsor Smith find their way...although how Conan ever got through any of his many fights without breaking that skinny little Barry Smith nose I have no idea. But of course, if you read other reviews, the big point of contention here is that these Dark Horse reprints recolor the stories... and the results are certainly divisive. I have a few of the original comics for comparison, and while the new colors are certainly more detailed and nuanced and give the art a more modern feel, they pretty much stick to a palatte of rich earth tones. The original comics color gets more creative and exciting with their limited old school capabilities (for example, a character in a dark room lit by a candle might be represented by blue shadows and yellow highlights in the original comics while the new version just paints the character in darker skin and earth tones, albeit with much more detail.) I like them both (although that might just be because I have them both.)

  • Good job 👍

    I found it a well done publication. The original ink is not quite there, but all and all, and Excellent job! Thank you for restoring some of my Favorite Conan Stories!! God bless Robert E. Howard.
