Chronologically, this'll almost be a continuation of the DH run. I look forward to seeing some Conan art by Alan Davis:

It should either be under SSOC or out on it's own. Age of Conan was supposedly for people other than Conan, but who knows if it'll last past the first one. Yeah, it could be in the SSOC. The Jim Zub/Patch Zircher story arc will only be for 3 issues (between issues 7 & 9). Ah, that makes sense. I was thinking the Zub/Zircher arc would be 5 issues.

Here's a video of the Roy Thomas panel at the ComicCon Paris 2019 from last week. Interesting what Roy has to say about the Savage Avengers and the reaction from the audience (around the 39min 30sec mark).
Enjoy!

The 2nd volume is now available at Amazon: www.amazon.co.uk/Barbarian-Life-Literary-Biography-Conan/dp/1683901819/www.amazon.com/Barbarian-Life-Literary-Biography-Conan/dp/1683901819/Barbarian Life: A Literary Biography of Conan the Barbarian (Volume Two)Know Again, O Reader... In thousands of four-color panels for Marvel Comics, Roy Thomas told the tale of Robert E. Howard’s greatest creation, Conan the Barbarian. Now, in this definitive biography and analysis, Roy chronicles Conan’s comic-book life, issue by issue, plot by plot, and artist by artist.
For ten years, from October 1970 when Roy and artist Barry Smith assembled the first issue of Marvel's Conan the Barbarian, to October 1980 when Roy and artist John Buscema completed their last issue together on the series, Thomas wrote of Conan's gigantic melancholies and gigantic mirth—as well as the wars, the wenches, and the wizardry that bedeviled the Cimmerian from one issue to the next.
In this second of three volumes, Roy Thomas explains the creative process behind nearly 50 issues (#52–#100) of Conan the Barbarian. Roy talks about how he plotted and scripted each issue, devised new adventures for Conan that expanded Howard's original stories into a world-spanning epic, and worked with such Conan artists and inkers as John Buscema, Gil Kane, Ernie Chan, and George Roussos.
Whether you’re a Conan fan or a comics fan, you'll enjoy this in-depth look at a Marvel comic-book classic.Paperback: 292 pages Publisher: Pulp Hero Press (November 29, 2019) Language: English ISBN-10: 1683901819 ISBN-13: 978-1683901815

Roy writes in his introduction to the second volume that there will be a third volume at least in which he will write about the rest of his CTB volumes, his King Conan volumes and selected SSC volumes.
