REFORGED revitalizes the legendary black-and-white magazine with vivid, all-new color restorations, bringing new depth and intensity to Conan's celebrated adventures.

This new series kicks off with two of Conan's most iconic stories: Tower of the Elephant featuring art from the legendary John Buscema and Alfred Alcala, and The Frost Giant's Daughter from the incomparable Barry Windsor-Smith, now recolored to fully capture the brutal majesty of Robert E. Howard's Hyborian Age.

Each oversized issue presents the genre-defining tales that helped shape sword-and-sorcery comics as we know them.

    Classic Barry Smith and Buscema/Alcala artwork on two well-worn Robert E Howard tales. The new colouring is mostly flat, in keeping with the 1970s when these stories were first published, although I'm not convinced colouring ever adds much when the art was drawn to be printed in black & white.

    I'd rather have a magazine featuring highlights from the original run than a massive omnibus, so I'll stick with it and look forward to when they do Red Nails.
