The Mammoth Hunters!
This was one mammoth translation, so the title of the story seems quite fitting…it’s “The Mammoth Hunters”, 45 pages of Conan greatness, never before seen in English! This one originally appeared in Spanish, by way of Editorial Planeta's La Espada Salvaje de Conan (The Savage Sword of Conan) #4 (3rd era), featuring a script by none other than Chuck Dixon!!! You know Chuck, right? Savage Sword of Conan? Conan the Savage? Conan the Usurper? In my opinion, the best damn writer Marvel ever had (well, right after Roy Thomas)…Sorry Chuck!
Check out this Conan…big, badass, bloody, and beautiful, courtesy of Argentinian artist Rubén Meriggi!
Download via Rapidshare or Megaupload…pick one, Stygian dog! Sure the script has taken quite a beating (being translated into Spanish and then loosely translated back into English), but at least the story makes sense. With any luck, Mr. Dixon will see this post, and not wanting his name associated with my second rate script, be kind enough to hook us up with the original!
