Marvel announced a new deal with Conan Properties International in January, kicking off in 2019 (see “Conan Returns to Marvel”). Marvel had published many comics based on Robert E. Howard’s characters from 1970 - 2000. Dark Horse acquired the comic rights to the Cimmerian barbarian in the early 2000s (see “Dark Horse To Publish Conan Comic”).
