Comment

Et si Conan vivait a notre époque ?
C est Marvel qui engagea le duo John Buscema et Ernie Chan pour repondre a la question !
La page 2 reprend toute l'iconographie typique de Conan et on y voit l image iconique de Conan d'apres Franck Frazetta qui fait d ailleurs tout le sel de cette planche ! Quelques annees plus tard

About John Buscema

John Buscema, born Giovanni Natale Buscema, was an American comic-book artist and one of the mainstays of Marvel Comics during its 1960s and 1970s ascendancy into an industry leader and its subsequent expansion to a major pop culture conglomerate. His younger brother Sal Buscema is also a comic-book artist. Buscema is best known for his run on the series The Avengers and The Silver Surfer, and for over 200 stories featuring the sword and sorcery hero Conan the Barbarian.
