I love Conan! CTB is what got me actually COLLECTING comics as opposed to just reading one here & there. As such, it is the first series I ever completed, natch.
I once flew by myself at 13 years old (give or take) from the Charlotte Heroes Con back to Cincinnati (with a plane switch in Newark, NJ to boot) with a brown grocery bag loaded with about 50 Conan back issues as my carry-on luggage!!
Ah, the glory days of eating pizza, playing D&D, drinking soda pop, and browsing through Conans with my friends up the street on a weekend night. Oh, to be 12 again!
