Conan Saga is B&W for the guy who was talking about it above. It came out before I owned the originals, so I can't make any statement about the quality of the reproduction. The early issues are rather open art-wise and very traditionally inked. I recall them looking a little vacant in Saga. tehy also feature amazing new Smith plate-like pieces that were jaw dropping.

If it was up to me starting from scratch - I would probably pick up the handful of Smith issues where he was in full artistic stride, and get the others via reprint. I would start with issues #15-21 - there may be a few sub artists in there.

Unfortunately as far as I am concerned - Barry Smith's Conan is out of print.

I wonder whether superior versions of Marvel's film was recovered when Cory put the Marvel warehouses together. I hope they asked him.
