KULL THE SAVAGE: The Original Marvel Years Omnibus HC
Thousands of years before the dawn of Conan, barbarian tribes rose across the Thurian continent, threatening the civilizations whose crumbling city walls still stood against them. In this ruthless age, there rose a man - an exile, no less - who would come to rule mighty Atlantis in the years before it crashed beneath the waves. This man was Kull and a host of Marvel’s greatest talents would chronicle his saga - his exile and savage youth; his exploits on the high seas; his rise through the gladiatorial pits and military ranks; his reign as king; and his epic battles with the skull-faced sorcerer Thulsa Doom.

I'm on the fence with the two Ablaze publications. I read some mixed reviews around here and on Amazon. I can't decide. The translations sometimes could definitely use some proofreading. I personally will buy the floppies and not the collections since despite the Hardcover, it's 2 stories per volume and it's still standard American comic book size. But concerning the story and art, it's definitely some of the best Conan around for recently. Or at least in my opinion.

I'm on the fence with the two Ablaze publications. I read some mixed reviews around here and on Amazon. I can't decide. It is kinda difficult. The original adaptations by Glenat look great with the oversize art, articles by Patrice Liounet and pin-ups at the back of each volume. I know it makes more sense for Ablaze to break each translation into 3 comics in regular comic-book size for the English speaking market, but unfortunately it does not really work and the original REH yarns at the back of each issue have too many typos and the font size keeps changing depending on the length of the yarn. They should have at least reprinted them in oversize hardcover editions like the originals with just one adaptation per volume. The Ablaze hardcovers are a little cheap looking with 2 adaptations in one volume in regular comic-book size. Nevertheless, after all that complaining, I still think some adaptations are worth picking up.

Well, I ordered it from Amazon against my better judgement as their shipping of books has been horrible as everybody knows. Eh, if I don't like it I will just return it.

I'm an idiot for ever bothering to trust Amazon with shipping books. This has to be the fourth consecutive time I have tried ordering a book and it shows up loose after bouncing around in a box. This first Ablaze comic hardcover showed up with two crushed corners and I will be returning it. The artwork grew on me as I read through QotBC and I did learn a new sex position though. I hope my girlfriend likes being choked from behind. If she has any objections it will have to wait and then I will just show her that panel. Hey, if its good enough for Conan...
