Přichází jeden z nejpodmanivějších párů komiksové historie: Conan a Královna Černého pobřeží! Nejprve se však Cimeřan spolčí s Rudou Sonjou, a to v jedné z nejlepších povídek od scenáristy Roye Thomase a výtvarníka Johna Buscemy. Poté si Conan během putování Západem poslechne „Laza-Lantiho osudovou píseň“, střetne se s děsivým mnohokamenným mužem a též zavzpomíná na mládí v Cimerii! Následuje setkání s vlčí ženou Lupalinou a audience u strašlivého vladaře Unose! Conan přibírá na cesty své přátele Jusefa a Taru a ocitá se tváří v tvář svému největšímu soupeři: sobě samému! A na samý závěr se poprvé dozvíme vše o původu Belit, královny pirátů, jež se má stát Conanovou družkou v lásce i v boji. Tato kniha není součástí žádné z Kolosálních knih.

Roy Thomas tentokrát při snaze vytvořit z Barbara Conana jeden z neproslulejších komiksů všech dob spojil síly s výtvarníkem Johnem Buscemou! Conan pokračuje v cestách po hyborejských zemích, a dokonce vstupuje do armády svého někdejšího nepřítele, krále Yezdigerda. Osud ho zavane do stygijského močálu, kúšské a zembabwejské džungle i do kitajské říše a všude ho čekají střety s netvory, démony a krvežíznivými válečníky! Roy Thomas tentokrát zpracoval některé z klasických povídek, jako např. „Krev Belšazarovu“, a stvořil rovněž i zbrusu nové příběhy, kupříkladu čtenáři velmi oblíbený „Stín v hrobce“. V sešitu „Prokletí zlaté lebky“ se objevuje jako hostující výtvarník Neal Adams, takže na Conanovo spojenectví s Jumou proti zlému čaroději Rotatovi se můžete těšit v jeho pojetí!

Introduced by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby in the fertile pages of The Fantastic Four, the Silver Surfer quickly established himself as one of Marvel’s most far-out characters. Enslaved by Galactus to prowl the cosmos for the demi-god’s next planet-sized meal, the Surfer was as tragic a figure as any in comics?and he looked impossibly cool at the same time! A smash hit with fans and a regular supporting character in Fantastic Four, the character struck a creative nerve with Lee, who couldn’t wait to begin to tell some Surfer solo stories, but the timing had to be right.In the spring of 1968, things came together for both writer and character, with Lee giving the Surfer Marvel’s very first ongoing double-sized book. Lee also recruited artist John Buscema, who had recently been lending his extraordinary pencils to The Avengers. Together, they spun off a run of legendary tales that helped define the character forevermore.The feature stories from the entire 18-issue run of the 1968 Silver Surfer series are collected in this cosmic-sized XXL tome from the Eisner Award-winning Marvel Comics Library series. The most pristine pedigreed comics have been cracked open and photographed for reproduction in close collaboration with Marvel and the Certified Guaranty Company. Each page has been photographed as printed more than half a century ago, then digitally remastered using modern retouching techniques to correct problems with the era’s inexpensive, imperfect printing?as if hot off a world-class 1960s printing press. A custom paper stock was exclusively developed for this series to simulate the feel of the original comics.Texts by author and critic Douglas Wolk and Marvel artist and brother of John Buscema, Sal Buscema, accompany original artwork, photographs, and rare memorabilia. © 2023 MARVEL
