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.

Covers for volume 2: Regular cover by Neal Adams Conan The Barbarian: The Original Comics Omnibus Vol.2Author Roy Thomas Illustrated by John Buscema, Gil Kane The adventure continues, in this collection of classic Conan stories, perfect for fans and collectors alike! The legend of Conan continues! Tired of the thieving life, Conan signs on as a mercenary for the warring kingdom of Turan. The enemy will tell of Conan’s legendary skill in battle — if any of them live to tell the tale — but palace intrigue may prove more dangerous to the barbarian. 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

Kind of the right thread - someone on Reddit noticed Penguin have a vol 2 of the Original King Conan Omnibus listed on their site for a release of March 2025. prhcomics.com/book/?isbn=9781787744813

From the Masterworks site "Omar says on his podcast that titan is sending him the omnibus volume 1 of ctb and ssoc this week so hopefully we get a review soon" "Soon" . Considering Titan's "flexible" idea of "Release Dates", who knows how long "Soon" is?

...looks like Omar has picked up the 1st CtB omnibus volume by Titan: FYI, the SSOC Omnibus volume 1 shows up just after the 1 hour 52 minutes mark. Omar posted a photo on his Near Mint Condition Facebook page with the CTB Omni vol1 also. So the PRINTED editions look like they are FINALLY happening.

Has anybody noticed that the colors of the new Titan Conan the Barbararian omnibus do not match the original cover completely? They are slightly different in some parts... compare Marvel's and Titan's # 1 cover and you will see it. The DM cover looks good, though, I think. Someone in the restoration department made a mistake...
