Description

a STUNNING page from the historic prototype for Conan The Barbarian entitled "Kull of Atlantis" that Barry Smith created in the months before he drew Conan the BarbarianÂ #1 in 1970. This is pure Smith art, both pencils and inks, with a technique Barry Smith used as a shading method for this page called screentone (brand name, Zip-A-Tone).
Art features only large, powerful panels of exceptional quality. Because it was developed with a paperback format in mind, the pages were drawn on 9.25 by 13.75 inch art board
An abbreviated version of 8 pages from the 20 page story this page is from "Kull of Atlantis" finally saw print in 1974 in Savage Sword of Conan 5 It was also reprint gain in Conan Saga 51

Such a powerful page from this story! The control of anatomy and line with a fierce warrior cry on each panel makes this BWS a wonder to behold.
