 Conan the Barbarian: The Original Marvel Years - Epic Collection Vol. 1
by Barry Windsor-Smith (Illustrator), Gil Kane (Illustrator), Roy Thomas (Contributor), John Jakes (Contributor)
The greatest saga in sword-and-sorcery history begins - the saga of Conan! Born on a battlefield in the frozen lands of Cimmeria, Conan fights his way through the untamed Hyborian kingdoms, sparing no man, woman or wizard his wrath. His adventures will become legend. He will become king. Roy Thomas and Barry Windsor-Smith brought Robert E. Howard's iconic creation to four-color life with work that set new standards for comic book storytelling. Marvel is honored to present their original epic sagas - all painstakingly restored to match the majesty of the original editions. In these early exploits, Conan ventures from his homeland for the first time, honing his skills as a thief, mercenary, and above all, warrior!

Oh wow, I'm happy to see so many extras. I wonder if these volumes will add up to match the content of the Omnibus volumes, or if there will be less content overall?
Honestly, I'd rather collect in this format. Much easier to kick back and read.
Looks like it's coming to Comixology too, which is great.

From what I've seen in the video only the introduction by Roy Thomas and the 'Hyborian Pages' appear to be missing from the first half of the first CtB Omnibus. Yeah, it's a lot easier to read the Epic Collections in comfort - I wish they'd stick to the original colors for the covers on the Epics. |

Based on the video some of the extra material from the back is missing from the Epic Collection compared to the CtB Omnibus. It looks like the Epic Collection presents only a selection of those pages. It still looks great and is obviously a lot easier to read than the Omnibus, but I wonder how the spine of this paperback would hold up on multiple readings.

Great extras indeed but what is the interest apart those when Omnibus and individual numbers are also available (in those and SSoC, the Hyborian pages are of a great interest for collectors).
I can't see any difference between the different versions, just the copyrights...

We could probably move this to the Epic thread, but an interesting article nonetheless from a source you wouldn’t expect.

That's actually a good place to end V3. V4 could go all the way up to Queen of the Black Coast (43-56 and possibly SSOC #1 to lead it off)

Today I got a change to compare the first 2 Epics with the first Omni, and a lot of the extras from the Omni are missing from the Epics. I'm glad I decided to collect the Omnis, chunky though they are  |
