Kral Conan #17 King Conan #1 #2 #3 Turkish Comic Turkey SSOC #50
Kral Conan – Issue #17 – Turkish Edition, Alfa Yayınları (2000)
Description:
This is a Turkish-language, black-and-white Conan comic published by Alfa Yayınları in 2000 as part of the Kral Conan series. Released on a biweekly schedule between 1999 and 2001, the series runs for a total of 42 issues and is defined by its mixed, non-linear editorial structure, combining material from different original Conan titles without following their original publication order.
Issue #17 continues the King Conan storyline introduced in the previous issue. It includes Part 2 of the story from King Conan Issue #1, followed by the complete story from King Conan Issue #2, and Part 1 of the story from King Conan Issue #3. This issue therefore advances Conan’s reign narrative, focusing on themes of power, legacy, and the challenges of kingship, while maintaining serialized continuity across multiple issues of the Turkish series.
The cover art is taken from The Savage Sword of Conan #50. None of the stories from that issue appear inside this volume, making the cover entirely unrelated to the interior content. This mismatch is consistent with Alfa Yayınları’s established practice of using visually striking Savage Sword covers to enhance shelf appeal, even when the artwork does not correspond to the included King Conan stories.
