Popular Post srezvan Posted December 20, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted December 20, 2019 I picked up this gem from Half Price Books...with a coupon, of course. Shown below: cover, signature page, and a blurb about the cover: "...a young Baltimore artist, Bernie Wrightson." ashsaytr, musicmeta, oakman29 and 10 others 12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post srezvan Posted January 5, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 5, 2020 Here is the second of three Conan books by Mirage (the first is above). This book is a compilation of articles from Conan and Robert E Howard fanzines. For the Frazetta fans out there, I included the Frazetta sketches. The cover is NSFW because of the topless female figure...maybe...just in case, it's in the spoiler tag below.

Popular Post Brian48 Posted January 11, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 11, 2020 Just came in today. I'm astounded interest in these early SSOCs, especially the ones with Boris covers are so overlooked and cheap!

In case you have not done so, you can add your SSoC Boris collection to the Registry here: https://comics.www.collectors-society.com/registry/comics/SetTypeDetail.aspx?SetTypeID=4381 Did get this one in 2018 for my Boris set, although it's not complete - but nice to see that CGC seems to love the great mags too! Spoiler I'm still looking for a 9.8 regarding #13 and #15, but no luck searching the first 5 (or more) years, sigh. With this speed I'll capture a unicorn or bigfoot before I get #13 and #15 in 9.8 Edited January 12, 2020 by Rune FoggyNelson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post srezvan Posted January 25, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 25, 2020 Okay Conan fans, this is the third and final Conan hardcover published by Mirage: The Conan Grimoire. Great Wrightson wraparound cover. No Frazetta or Wrightson interiors, but different artists, including George Barr, who is fantastic.

Popular Post Brian48 Posted February 17, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 17, 2020 Definitely a buyer's market out there for Conan fans. Picked up this nice copy for only $13.50. Some of Gil Kane's best work. Morganmi, B2D327, musicmeta and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picked up this nice copy for only $13.50. Some of Gil Kane's best work. I agree. That's a great cover, and excellent Gil Kane inside. Hope you have the previous issues, inked by Tom Sutton, which I think are even better. I've just finished the Hour of the Dragon trade paperback collection, which has the complete REH 'Conan the Conqueror' adaptation that runs across the first four Giant-Sizes and two issues of SSOC, and with the Thomas-written sequels from two Conan Annuals. Well-paced, classic Bronze Age sword-and-sorcery. Edited May 30, 2020 by Ken Aldred Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camera73 Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 (edited) Does anyone recognize this Conan the Barbarian #93 from 1978? Is it a Whitman variant? Initial research turned up zero copies.

Popular Post Joshua33 Posted January 3, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 3, 2021 Thought I would post progress on the 9.4 white run. I still need Chamber of Darkness 4, Annual 1, Giant Size 1 and 2, Kull 3 (ill trade the 9.6 white for 9.4 white), and Barbarian 4, 10,11,12,13,18, 20 and 22. Nobody responds to the WTB thread on these, so if you see this post, I pay too much for them.

Maybe fun to put it all in one post with big pictures, - Here we go, if I can still count to 25... (Might need to take new shots, some are below the quality I'd like - but kinda feels like ... work ) Click on an image to see full size To quote the movie Citizen Kane, this would be the "Rosebud" of my collection - the set I love the most.
