News Legendary comic artist Neal Adams passed away.

There is a series of hardcover omnibusses with around a thousand pages each. These reprint not just the comics, but also the articles, editorials, letter pages and pin ups from the Savage Sword magazines, as well as bonus material like a new foreword by Roy Thomas for each volume, in-house ads featuring Conan, articles from the Conan Saga reprints, stuff like that. These volumes are quite expensive at well over a hundred dollars per volume, though, so that I myself had to make a cut and stop ordering any upcoming volume.

The regular color Conan the Barbarian is being reprinted both a companion series of omnibus hardcovers, as well as in Marvel's softcover Epic Collection series. The second volume of the Epic Collection features issue #37, the one Adams did both pencils and inks for. It was also reprinted in single issue form as one of those True Believers 1$ books they did for a while (this one, along with other Conan ones, were done back in 2018 to coincide with the licence returning to Marvel).
They've also been releasing digital versions of the individual issues of the original black & White Savage Sword.
I don't think I've read anything Adams worked on, but I know what a loss his death is for the industry. RIP.
 
I bought the Batgirl from a dealer who worked with Neal a lot and the Batman from Neal himself.
