real conan- you cant beat it
I bought this after finishing the complete chronicles of conan by robert e howard. I am a fan of both prose fiction and graphic novels, and i was looking forward to this a lot.I was not disappointed at all when i received this. The paper quality and printing is good, the artwork is nice, but by far the best is the storytelling. I was expecting a re-hash of the original prose but i as overjoyed to find new tales. They keep conan close to howard's original, and even have few references to howard's style of writing.Anyone who likes conan, and especially the original stories will not be dissapointed by this book!

Good purchase
Conan comics from the Busiek era are very well regarded and this is one of the best ones.The book arrived as described with minor delay.

Poor quality control from Dark Horse
The stories in this first Dark Horse Conan collection are fun and well worth the read. However, the book itself has a printing problem towards the back. There is no chapter 6 title page - goes from 5 to 7 and then it has missing pages. At the end of the first chapter 7 is a second chapter 7 which contains both the missing pages and a repeat of the earlier section. Poor quality control for what is, in my case, an 11th reprint edition.

Conan...blood , guts, wine and women
Both the story and the art are true to R E Howard's character. If you like your fantasy heroic and raw I highly recommend this collection.
