Conan the Barbarian Vol.1 Conan the Barbarian # 1 - 24 Conan the Barbarian Vol.2 - Conan the Barbarian # 25 50 Conan the Barbarian Vol.3 Conan the Barbarian # 51 75 Conan the Barbarian Vol.4 Conan the Barbarian # 76 100 Conan the Barbarian Vol.5 Conan the Barbarian # 101 125 Conan the Barbarian Vol.6 Conan the Barbarian # 126 150 Conan the Barbarian Vol.7 Conan the Barbarian # 151 175 Conan the Barbarian - Specials Red Nails Special, Giant-Sized Conan the Barbarian # 1 5, Conan the Barbarian Annual # 1 12, Conan the Barbarian Movie Special # 1 2, Conan the Destroyer Movie Special # 1 2 I only have another two issues of Conan the Barbarian (#176 & 177) so I will have to pick up # 178 to 275 which will eventually become Vol.8 to 11. I am presently holding of on binding Savage Sword & King Conan until I see what Dark Horse are going to do. Does anyone here have plans to bind any of this material?

Vol. 1 includes issues 0-24, which is a great run. David Banks did a great die for the Dark Horse version of the Conan logo, which you're welcome to use if you'd like.

I am a longtime lurker to this section of the boards, and have always been very interested in having some of my comic series' bound professionally. But I do tend to put things off, and just as I was about to break down and start the process of having my first set bound, I read the word on the boards that Capitol was no longer accepting projects from "new" customers. One of the first projects I wanted done was the beginning of the Dark Horse Conan books, and seeing this already done in wonderful black/gold really got me going again (especially if we might be able to use that killer die). I was wondering if anyone knew if the situation at Capitol has changed? Will they be accepting orders from "newbies" anytime soon? A few series that I would like to have bound (just off the top of my head) include: Conan SSOC Sojourn Planet of the Apes magazine Rom Byrne FF Byrne Captain America Man-Thing What If (orininal series)...... and maybe the Peter David Supergirl series

I have 25 through 190, which was Buscema's last issue. I just finished a volume of Annuals/Giant -Size. Seth, I know we've talked about sharing a die for Conan, but unfortunately, it's too late for me. Waiting to be bound....issues 1 through 24. I only need issues 3,7,15 and 24. Bought this the other week....I need to figure out a way to fit this in somewhere. I saw your Kull books and thought that was a great idea, so.... These are ready to go, but I haven't figured out how I want to divide these up. Highland Ray, this includes everything in your 2 volumes.

I added the Kull story from Conan Annual 3 at the end of Vol.1. It made two different sized volumes, but I think that it was the bet place to break the storyline.

Posts: 109 (10/22/06 9:17 PM) Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite	That's a good idea. How many issues are in your second volume...about 25? I was thinking about binding all of Kull Vol. 1 into one book, but that's 29 issues. If I did that I might need to add some more to my second book to fill it out. Are there any other Kull stories outside of vol. 2, vol. 3 and Conan?

Posts: 109 (10/22/06 9:37 PM) Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite	No extra costs. They are done with the same method as the text and aren't considered decorative. $15.00 per volume is what I pay, but the spine work is no frills....which is fine by me.

Posts: 5058 (10/22/06 10:27 PM) Registered Member Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite	There are 26 issues in vol.2, but 6 of them (Kull (1982) # 1 - 2 & Kull (1983) # 1 - 4) are double sized issues. As far as I'm aware these two volume contain all of the "comic sized" Kull issues. There are Kull stories in magazine sized mags, but that's for another day. My volumes contain: Kull the Conquerer Vol.1 Creatures on the Loose # 10, Kull # 1 2, Monsters on the Prowl # 16, Conan # 10, Kull # 3 15, Conan Annual # 3 Kull the Conquerer Vol.2 Kull # 16 29, Kull (1982) # 1 2, Kull (1983) # 1 10

My Conan Specials is on its way to David and contains: Conan Specials Vol.1 Red Nails Special, Giant-Sized Conan the Barbarian # 1 5, Conan the Barbarian Annual # 1 12, Conan the Barbarian Movie Special # 1 2, Conan the Destroyer Movie Special # 1 2 I have removed any reprints from the Giant-Sized and Annuals, which left two issues with only the covers being bound into the book.

Posts: 109 (10/23/06 5:53 PM) Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite	Annual 1, Giant-Size 1-5, Annuals 2 - 11. I left all the reprints in because I like to bind complete issues on all my bronze age or earlier comics. I left out Annual 12 because the story is continued in Conan issue 200...if I ever get around to binding the rest of Conan I'll add it there. I will eventually put together a book of misc. stories like the movie adaptations and Conan: Death Covered in Gold among others.

Posts: 740 (10/24/06 6:21 PM) Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite	Can we arrange a die swap between Capitol and Library Binding Co? =========== I thought about this for a couple of days now and I have decided that I have enough to do with one binder without complicating things with a second binder. If the owner of a die wants to loan it out, then I will return the die to the owner first and then it is up to the owner to follow through on the loan. dpbanks

I will keep my eye out for future posts about Capitol's availability. Until then, maybe I will read through the other threads and try another binder.

I'd like to put crossovers in order, and have volumes break naturally and not in the middle of a story. I have only read the 1st 50 issues or so, and had to put them aside while I finish reading Wonder Woman and Birds of Prey. thanks. "All there really is...Is Virtue & Vice." -Chris Robinson

With Red Sonja a broke the two volumes as follows: Red Sonja Vol.1 Conan the Barbarian #48 (Red Sonja story only), Marvel Feature : Red Sonja # 1 7, Red Sonja (1977) # 1 15 Red Sonja Vol.2 Red Sonja (1983) # 1 2, Red Sonja (1983) # 1 13, Red Sonja : The Movie # 1 2, Red Sonja : Scavenger Hunt # 1, Red Sonja : Death in Scarlet Which gave me the following:

Posts: 5058 (12/07/06 3:53 AM) Registered Member Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite	No, I cut the Red Sonja story out of Conan the Barbarian # 48 to put in the Red Sonja book. It was a nine page back-up story which did not feature Conan. The main Conan story in the comic was only 10 pages long.
