Conan the Barbarian, also known as Conan the ‘Cimmerian’, is a fictional hero in sword and sorcery stories. The character was created by Robert E. Howard in 1932 and featured in pulp magazines like Weird Tales. Conan’s stories have been adapted into books, comics, films (Conan the Barbarian and Conan the Destroyer), TV shows, video games, and role-playing games. Conan made his debut as a black-haired barbarian with heroic traits in the short novel “People of the Dark,” published in 1931. Before he passed away, Howard penned 21 stories about Conan. Conan the Barbarian comics have been published by Marvel Comics in the 1970’s and again since 2019. Dark Horse Comics also held the publishing rights for several years starting in the early 2000’s.
