Conan Saga help

[Perry Holley]

I was wondering if some kind soul could help with this...

I was rereading through some of my copies of the Conan Saga magazine that Marvel published inthe late 80's. The early issues reprinted the cover that goes along with each story, making it easy to know what issue it came from, but starting around #10 they stopped doing that. I was wanting to know what issues the stories in the following CS issues originaly appeared in:

Conan Saga #10

"Night of the Dark God" (Thomas/Adams)
"The Secret of Skull River" (Thomas/Starlin)
"The Gods of Bal-Sagoth" (Thomas/Kane)

The indica (sic?) says that these stories were reprinted from 1972 and 1974.

Conan Saga #11

"Curse of the Undead-Man" (Thomas/Buscema)
"The Thing in the Temple" (Thomas/Kane)
"To End in Flame" (Thomas/Conway/Smith) - Kazar story

Stories were reprinted from 1971, 1972, and 1974.

Conan Saga #21

"The Horror From The Red Tower" (Thomas/Buscema)
"The Striking of the Gong" (Thomas/Hoberg) - Kull story

Stories were reprinted from 1977 and 1979.



Also, in 1983 Marvel published a one-shot that reprinted the three-part Thomas/Smith adaptation of Howard's "Red Nails." Does anyone know what issues these three chapters originally appeared in? The reprint dates are listed as 1971, 1973, and 1975.

Thanks in advance for any help with this!

I can answer a few, based on owning the relevant copies

Conan Saga #10

"The Secret of Skull River" (Thomas/Starlin) It appeared in Conan the Barbarian for the first time in colour in issue #64, the copy I have. But this is a reprint from Savage Tales magazine #5.

"The Gods of Bal-Sagoth" (Thomas/Kane) It appeared in Conan the Barbarian in colour in issue 17, but previously in Savage Sword of Conan magazine #13

Conan Saga #11

"The Thing in the Temple" (Thomas/Kane) appeared in colour in Conan the Barbarian 18 and previously in Savage Sword of Conan #14.

Man, I had no idea that Conan Saga ran over 90 issues...
