Conan, the sword-and-sorcery character created by Robert E. Howard, is the protagonist of five major comic series published by Dark Horse Comics. The first series, titled simply ''Conan'', ran for 50 issues from 2004 to 2008; the second, titled ''Conan the Cimmerian'', began publication in 2008 and lasted 25 issues until 2010; the third series, titled ''Conan: Road of Kings'', started publishing in December 2010 and ended in January 2012 after 12 issues; a fourth series, titled ''King Conan'' and which takes place during Conan's time as king, launched in February 2011 and concluded in 2014 with 20 issues; a fifth series, titled ''Conan the Barbarian'', continuing from ''Road of Kings'', lasted 25 issues from February 2012 to March 2014; a sixth series, titled ''Conan the Avenger'', started publishing in April 2014. Dark Horse has also published several one-shots and half a dozen mini-series. Dark Horse is also publishing ongoing series of collections of the original Marvel Comics ''Conan the Barbarian'', ''The Savage Sword of Conan (Barbarian )'' and ''King Conan'' series in graphic novel format. ==Overview== Dark Horse Comics began their take on Conan in 2003 with a one-shot prologue, ''Conan'' #0: ''Conan the Legend''.〔()〕 The ''Conan'', ''Conan the Cimmerian'', ''Conan: Road of Kings'' and ''Conan the Barbarian'' series present a fresh interpretation, incorporating both new material and adaptations of stories by Robert E. Howard, with no other connection to many Marvel Comics series or other post-Howard material. An ongoing dialogue between two characters, the Prince and the Wazir, living in an age centuries in Conan's future, is often used as a framing device for the stories. Each issue also contains "The Adventures of Two-Gun Bob (True Stories from the Life of Robert E. Howard)" by Jim & Ruth Keegan. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Conan (Dark Horse Comics)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
