Conan the Barbarian #1, October 1970
Tonight’s cover image from the Lizard Collection: the very first issue of Conan the Barbarian, created by the greats of the late Silver Age — writer Roy Thomas, artist Barry Smith, and inker/embellisher John Verpoorten. This comic book was published in October 1970, and was the inspiration for a special edition of the comic collector’s Bible, the Overstreet Price Guide. The Lizard Collection’s copy is in terrific shape, with white pages, bright inks, washboard abs, and only a few minor cover flaws.
