'Conan the Barbarian: Coming of Conan'; Restored For 'The Original Marvel Years Epic Collection'

Marvel Comics announced Conan the Barbarian: Coming of Conan, the first volume of collected Conan books restored for The Original Marvel Years Epic Collection, for release into trade in June 2020.

Conan's adventures would become legend, but before he became king, he was Conan the Barbarian. In this new trade paperback, Roy Thomas and Barry Windsor-Smith bring Robert E. Howard’s barbarian to four-color life, and have restored the art to match the epic majesty of their original editions. Conan the Barbarian: Coming of Conan collects the 1970 editions of Conan the Barbarian #1-13 and includes material from Chamber of Darkness #4 into a single volume. It is written by Roy Thomas and John Jakes, penciled by Barry Windsor-Smith with Gil Kane, and features a cover by Barry Windsor-Smith.

Conan the Barbarian: Coming of Conan will be 352 pages and will retail for $34.99.

Marvel Comics also announced The Marvel Art Of Savage Sword Of Conan for release in August 2020 (see "A 'Conan' Art Collection Worthy of Crom Himself").
