Product Description

Welcome to the Hyborian Age, a time of gods, kings and sorcerers. And of its warriors, the greatest was Conan: blood-drenched barbarian, adventurer, mercenary, pirate and king by his own hand -- the greatest sword and sorcery hero of them all! This second fantastic collection continues Conan's adventures, adapted from Robert E. Howard's legendary stories, and featuring Conan doing what he does best -- battling wizards, stealing their loot and indulging in savage swordplay. Originally published in Savage Sword of Conan and Savage Tales of Conan, these previously uncollected strips, illustrated by Barry Windsor-Smith, have been digitally re-coloured, once more bringing to life a lost age of myth and monsters!

3.0étoiles sur 5 The coloring ruined it for me., Fév 18 2004
Par B. Leblanc (Canada) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
I must agree with many other reviewers: it was a mistake on the part of the digital colorists to attempt to add volume to the images. Smith himself, when he colors his work, goes for a more subdued approach... His colors try to subtly enhance his gorgeous line work, not drown it in computerized gradient effects. And drowning is exactly what we see here, especially in the "Rogues in the house" segment. That piece actually looked much better in black and white than it does here in colour form.

The choice of colors itself was sometimes dubious; the ethereal veil of Atali, daughter of the Frost Giant Ymir, is here coloured a heavy green; that makes it appear like rough wool rather than like "a fabric so fine no human hand could have woven it".

Despite this unfortunate problem, this collection is certainly a worthy addition to any fan of the classic series. It just could have been better had the colors been as in the original comic, or handled by the same studio that recolored volume one.

4.0étoiles sur 5 Essential Conan Comics, Janv. 26 2004
Par Timothy Hewitt (Columbia, SC USA) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
These reprints of the early Marvel Comics Conan series are essential for any fan of comics in general and Conan in particular. As has been noted, the only drawbacks are the absence of the original covers and digital color that virtually crushes Barry Smith's art. That's a shame because these stories could have been greatly enhanced by digital color in the right hands. We can only hope that Dark Horse will correct the problem before they get around to reprinting "Red Nails" which I understand is part of the plan.

3.0étoiles sur 5 Digital recoloring is a mixed bag., Janv. 23 2004
I wish that I could give this book 4 stars but it has two medium flaws that make it only earn three. 1.The original covers have not been included. Why not? 2. The computer applied color interferes with seeing the original artwork clearly. By this I mean that the color is many times so dark that it overwhelms Smith's work. Also, the effort to make the figures more volumetric by modeling from light to dark quite often makes the pen strokes vanish. Hopefully, someone at Dark Horse will fix this in the next two volumes because it's in these issues where Smith hits his early stride and I'd hate for Smith's pen work to be obscured by some dcomputer colorist attempting to demonstrate his/her anime flavored virtuosity.Even after my rant, I recommend this book and volume one too. They ain't perfect, but still damned good. Just take it with a grain of salt.
