BUMP IF YOU'RE READING
based, bump
Thanks user
This is the reprint of the original Robert E. Howard story that this is adapted from, btw.
There's also this "preview"/ad for this shitty comic that no one cares about, but I'll post it anyway for the sake of posting the full issue.
And then there's this page showing off the variant covers.
And that's that.
Download links are in the Win-O' Thread.
So how is Marvel not overlooking this? Don't they have the rights?
Bump,,by Crom!
I really like that the artist can draw Conan a bit goofy but still Conan.
Not a huge fan of this cover.
It's definitely a bit cartoony, but I think it works.
because the text is covered up? i hate it when they do that.
Cool.
Just in general. The art is kinda "eh..." and the poses/arrangement of the characters looks almost amateurish.
In Europe, all of REH's Conan stories are now public domain, so a lot of European comics creators are doing their takes on it.
And then supposedly it turned out that a lot of REH's original Conan text stories are actually public domain in the US (I forget the reason though). This prompted Ablaze to try to print the European Conan, but under the comic title "The Cimmerian" instead of "Conan" because Conan is trademarked.
gotcha
this art is really bad bro
Nobody has the rights because all classic Conan stories are in the public domain.

Robert Howard estate only owns rights to the later stories and the trademark - which is why the comic is called Cimmerian and not Conan.
If you want, you can put Conan into story you're making no problem.
I like the armored Conan and the pulpy feel. Definitely feels much closer to original stories than most modern takes.
I think the other thing is that you have to do it based on whatever REH's description of him is like, and also the drawings from the original pulp stories. You might not be able to use the later designs.
It looks like a giant fucking bat.
Alary is a great artist
well shit
>she just jumps in like she's Scrooge McDuck
That's hilarious.
More like queen of the braap coast
Not a fan of this art for Conan. The other French adaptions have much better art.
nice butt
Well then I'm looking forward to the other stories being translated even more then.
>bestiality
does the translator not know what that word means?
Why the fuck are these pages not joined? I'm pretty sure this is supposed to be a 2-page spread.
damn
OH SHIT! Is that what happened in the original story?
