THE FATE OF BÊLIT REVEALED – AND A GRAND FINALE FOR ROY THOMAS!

Roy Thomas’ decade-long original run on CONAN THE BARBARIAN ranks as one of the greatest in comic book history, and it was crucial in making Conan an icon known the world over. In this Omnibus edition, Roy and his artistic collaborator John Buscema bring the saga of Bêlit and her quest for the crown of Asgulun to a conclusion. It’s a tale that will forever change Conan’s life. The adventures that follow feature an even more savage Conan, fiercer than ever and truly unbound. Also included are the Annual sequels to The Hour of the Dragon, a What If? tale that places Conan in the middle of New York City and a massive trove of original art, essays and behind-the-scenes material.
