Looks like Volume 1 got pushed back to March 5 and Volume 2 to May 7.
I rather doubt these will ever be published. They should honestly just license the omnibus edition publications back to Marvel.

That's a pretty cool assumption. Where did you get it?

Titan should just call it quits and concentrate on publishing the regular series. It is clear today they just can't release any Conan omnibus. I really miss Marvel here. They were doing an excellent job on the omnibus series. It is sad they just did not have time to finish the whole Savage Sword thing. As their monthly titles were performing poorly sales wise , I _wonder_whether the later volumes of SSOC weren't selling enough to justify the time and cost to make them worthwhile carrying on with? My worry is that there may not be enough demand for many of the volumes Titan are planning to release , the first CtB/SSOC omnis., which I thought would be the one many would want, are already being fairly heavily discounted at Forbidden Planet in the UK. I have always bought Conan omnibi from instocktrades and up there the only volumes avaiable today are vol. 5 to 8. Previous volumes are oop since a long time ago, so there may be enough demand for upcoming releases.

The legend of Conan continues! Tired of the thieving life, Conan signs on as a mercenary for the warring kingdom of Turan.

After all, it’s never wise to bed a wizard’s woman. Then, Conan joins with Red Sonja for a multipart adventure. Last, but far from least, we present Roy Thomas and Gil Kane’s complete adaptation of “The Hour of the Dragon,” the iconic story of how Conan became king and conqueror and met the woman who would become his wife. 856 Pages $125 NEW RELEASE DATE: 7 MAY 2024
