Dark Horse's Classic Comic Book Characters series features characters from a variety of publishers' books, not just Dark Horse. We are very pleased to present one of the all-time favorite characters, Robert E. Howard's Conan, as the fifth release in our Classic Comic Book Characters series.
Although Conan first appeared in the pulp magazines of the 1930s, it was his debut as a comic book character in the 1970s that really rekindled interest in the character. The comics series was groundbreaking in many ways, elevating the standard of artwork and pushing the envelope of content with its savage approach to the sword and sorcery genre.
Our statue is inspired by that version of Conan, but also recalls the 1940's sculpting and painting style of syroco statues with a result which Craig Yoe describes as primitive but charming .
Conan stands 5 tall and is full-painted. Each statuette is packaged in a litho-printed full-color tin box and included is a vintage-style pinback button, and booklet about the character and his creator, limited to 750 pieces.
