Unless Dark Horse do so before the end of the year, they won't be able to, since they are losing the rights to Conan in 2019. I think it would make sense for them to do it, since it's going for really stupid prices, but it doesn't seem to have been solicited yet, so who knows.

Oh man, i hope they will reprint it... I just checked it out and they ask almost 900 dolars for the 1st Colossal Conan... That's just crazy... If there is anyone from Dark Horse who reads this, Please please please reprint the 1st Colossal Conan.

Are the colossal books collections larger than the original comic issues?

She's a BEAST. 8.5 wide, 12.5 long, 4+ thick. 50 issues. Weighs 11 lbs. Blood-red ribbon-page-marker. I've read the hell out of mine & the binding's still strong ... even though, you gotta read it on a table.

The next 2 Colossal's coming look to have 1/2 the issues as the 1st.

Not my pic, I took it from here.

It's taller than DC/Marvel Omnis, and almost as tall as DC's Absolute editions, as you can see on this pic by our own DarthChrisDK:

You're talking about Vol 1&2 of these?

Hey I really really really appreciate y'all's help. The 2 new Colossals have me wondering because their dimensions are different (Product Dimensions: 8 x 12.2 inches for Colossal King Conan, which doesn't sound much larger) and the weights are way less than half.

My Colossal Conan The Cimmerian arrived yesterday. Great looking book & as big as the 1st Colossal Conan released a few years back although only a little over half as thick. Colossal King Conan next month!

Have seen the cover of Marvel's upcoming Conan V.I Omni. Not a fan of the cover art. Hope there's another version.

No one is. It's gotten LOTS of flak, and deservedly so.

Fortunately the Direct Market cover features the original Barry Windsor Smith art, so be there when it releases, because it's gonna fly off the shelves.
