KNOW, oh prince, that between the years when the comic book industry drank up the Pulp magazines and their gleaming stories, and the years of the rise of the sons of Marvel and DC, there was an Age very much dreamed of, when shining characters lay spread across the newsstands with shimmering glossy covers—Golden Knight, Silver Knight, Black Knight and Prince Valiant with his black-haired bowl cut; fancy speak and Arthurian charms. None of these gallant characters would lay claim to being the first Sword & Sorcery story to appear in Comic Books. Hither came Crom, the Aesir, blonde-haired, cunning in wit, Skull-Biter in hand, a spider slayer, a womanizer, a Usurper, with gigantic attitude and gigantic-er swagger, to tread on the jeweled throne of Ophir under booted heel.

Crom the Barbarian is the FIrst Sword and Sorcery Comic Book character. Created in 1950 by Gardner F. Fox and John Giunta for Avon Comics. It first appeared in a Pulp Magazine called Out of This World Adventures.

Includes all four original full-colour Crom stories by Gardner Fox, John Giunta, and Jack Gatz, as well as four new black-and-white Crom stories by Kurt Brugel.

Crom the Barbarian

Gardner F. Fox (1911-1986) enjoyed a long and successful career writing in many genres. He wrote adventure novels, spy novels, romances, historical novels, fantasy and science fiction, comic books (more than 4,000 of them!) -- everything imaginable, in fact, and with a skill and surety that won him a legion of fans and readers worldwide.

In the 1960s, at the peak of the sword and sorcery craze, when Robert E. Howard's Conan the Barbarian (and many similar creations) reached the pinnacle of their success, Gardner Fox created his first sword & sorcery hero: Kothar the Barbarian. Kothar's adventures spanned 5 volumes. Included in this volume are:

Kothar: Barbarian Swordsman
Kothar of the Magic Sword
Kothar and the Demon Queen

The First Kothar the Barbarian Megapack

Kothar stole the helix from the fat Emperor of Avalonia. It was the only way he could hope to recover his magic sword Frostfire from the belly of the Great Eagle of Nirvalla. But the original theft of the helix was to embroil Kothar in even more uncanny adventures. An "ice being", an eerie creature even in Kothar's world, used the helix for his own dark purpose.

Trying to forget the beautiful Laella--driven away by the witch Red Lori--Kothar agreed to deliver another lovely girl from the sinister followers of the god Polthoom. Even with the magic sword flashing in his powerful hands, it was the bloodiest, weirdest, most blood-chilling adventure of his life.

Through the mists of Man's pre-history he comes a-questing for those who would enslave or destroy him for their evil gain. The greatest champion of all the known world, from the Endless Green Sea to the Red Desert, Kyrik dominated his world and his era.
