My Rating “An Informal History Of The Thomas/Smith Conan” Roy Thomas provides a two-page history of his work with Barry Windsor-Smith. Without these two pioneers, surely Conan the Barbarian would never have reached the success that it did in the early 1970s.

My Rating “By Blood Betrayed!” Three days have passed since Red Sonja smuggled the last descendant of Elarr Vorn into the Pirosin Tower for treatment.
