The past few years have been good for fans of REH in general, and Conan fans in particular. The future looks just as bright. For those who may be interested, a brief, but by no means comprehensive, list of Conan goodies.
1. Del Rey books has released all of REH's original Conan stories, corrected for spelling, but otherwise unedited. Same for Solomon Kane, Kull, and Bran Mak Morn. If you can find them, Wandering Star books published beautiful hardbacks, in several different Collector's Editions. They'll put quite a dent in your wallet, however. 2. Dark Horse has been busy as well. Conan: The Phenomenon, by Paul M. Sammon, is a comprehensive guide to all things Conan, from stories, to comics, to films and more. Also has many good web references, to numerous to list here. They're publishing the original Conan The Barbarian comic in color corrected TPBs under the title Chronicles of Conan (13 volumes released thus far). Soon they'll begin releasing The Savage Sword of Conan TPBs. Also, check out their line of Conan themed statuettes. Be sure not to miss their 4 hardback conan collections, as well as the Conan: Book of Thoth TPB, which reveals the backround of Thoth-Amon. 3. Conan: The Ultimate Guide To The World's Most Savage Barbarian, by Roy Thomas. Everything you ever wanted to know about the Hyborian Age, from Conan himself to the various religions. A must have companion book to Conan: The Phenomenon. 4. Todd Mcfarlane has put out the best Conan figures I've seen. The best, IMO, is the Conan of Aquilonia figure. 5. On the RPG front, Mongoose Publishing is doing a decent job. They've just released the second edition rulebook. |
