Hey guys, welcome back to the channel. I hope this is a helpful guide for anyone looking to collect Conan comics in 2019. Thanks for watching!

Savage sword of conan is the best Conan comic ever

[fbravo]

Excellent Video!!! Hope you come back soon for new content!!!

[DOLARNICK]

An intelligent presentation of the Conan series. Well worth watching

This was an extremely well done, informative video covering REH's works as presented in the various comics over the years. Really helped me see where to go and what to do to continue collecting all this great stuff from both Marvel and Dark Horse. Thanks for putting all this together in such a comprehensive, yet accessible manner! :)

Don’t just leave us hanging for so long man. We missed you.

I foresee a great deal of Conan in my future. What a wonderful world.

Really glad to see you back "on the air" regarding collected editions of our favorite comics! I just got the Marvel Conan Omni in the mail today. I had already collected many of the paperback editions from DH back when they were starting to put out the Chronicles of Conan re-colored trades and the Savage Sword of Conan B&W collections. However, I only collected the Roy Thomas written stories as I always thought he gave the most attention to staying to the original character that REH created. That would be Vol's 1-14 and 31-34 of COC and Vol's 1-5 and 19-22 of SSOC. I'll probably still pickup the Conan The Barbarian Omni's as they come out even tho I have the DH trades (will be doing some color comparisons on those early issues to see if they were really that bad) but not sure how many SSOC Omni's I'll pickup past the first one. Best story arcs for me during the Thomas/Buscema years were all the issues containing Belit, Queen of the Black Coast through issue #100.

Thanks as a Conan collector. This brought a lot of clarity. I made a video on ssoc way back in 2015

I have the complete run of Conan at Dark Horse and really looking forward to the return to Marvel. Just got the first Marvel omnibus today and can’t wait to collect every thing in the coming years 😊 Great video and keep up the great work 👍

[tetraquarks]

Dude, you have awesome videos. I was so lost in conan and you cleared it up. thank you!

[tolga_berk]

Hi Will,

Thanks you for the great video. I agree with all your comments. The Collosal Conan and Conan the Cimmerian is available in 20 Hardcovers as well. But those are also not easily available. Happy reading.

[PrezzySK]

Nice to see you back man ! You were the main reason why i got into comics and into "in-depth" media analysis, looking forward for the next one.

[joechip]

Hello Will. It's so good to have you back!!!! Please keep doing videos like this one. I like your channel because a) it's not just about hauls 2) you are interested in a variety of different comics/ movies / bandes dessinées and are obviously more open minded that the average comic reader on youtube and 3 ) because you are critical and don't find everything you read interesting, your opinion is more valuable to me even if i disagree with your preferences most of the time. Since you asked about suggestions, i would like more videos shows with MJ if possible. He is very interesting to listen to and would like to see him more often on your show.

So, here we are in 2021...is the "Conan the Barbarian Epic Collection: The Original Marvel Years"...basically a SC version of the Omnibus?

[Creek]

This video was right up my alley. I specialized in collecting all the original stuff containing Conan, including the Savage Tales issues containing him. I also branched off a little and got most of the Marvel Red Sonja stuff. There is also Conan Saga which reprints the original Conan The Barbarian comic in magazine size black & white. Anyway thanks for the info. I didn't realize Conan was still popular.

[Toypapi]

This was super helpful even though it's an old video 👍

[cesareborgia]

Fantastic summary. Perfect for a newbie like me. Thank you!

[OdiousRVA]

I needed this video. Love the 80s movies and the old Howard novels for Conan and wanted to get into comics. Thanks for explaining everything.

[MrBiggamer]

Great to have you back man! Hope more comics stuff will come!

[fiversrevenge]

Thanks for the Dark Horse Conan run explanation.
Now please teach us how to keep score at Bowling, and about the Blue Lines in Hockey.
And straighten out the continuity at DC Comics!
EEE HEE HEE!!!
