Conan

[Bane]

Hi, I was wondering if anyone could tell me the difference between Conan the Barbarian and Savage Sword of Conan? Does Savage sword deal with the same conan, or are they a fresh take on it... I haven't a clue, and have almost the whole Conan the Barbarian series from marvel so was wondering if it was worth my time collecting Savage Sword?

Thanks for your time!

Yes, it's the same Conan. Only Marvel produced Savage Sword of Conan in magazine format back in the '70s. That is the only real difference.

I believe that Dark Horse will be reprinting Savage Sword of Conan in trades soon, so that might be a nice way to "try-out" those tales. Hope this helped!
