Kral Conan #19 King Conan #5 #6 #7 Turkish Comic Turkey Boris Vallejo

Kral Conan – Issue #19 – 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 characterized by its mixed, non-linear editorial structure, combining material from various original Conan publications without following their original sequence.

Issue #19 continues the serialized King Conan storyline. It includes Part 2 of the story from King Conan Issue #5, followed by the complete story from King Conan Issue #6, and Part 1 of the story from King Conan Issue #7. These stories further explore Conan’s reign, emphasizing political intrigue, large-scale conflict, and the burdens of kingship, which distinguish the King Conan era from Conan’s earlier wandering adventures.

The cover art features Boris Vallejo’s illustration originally used for the Conan the Magnificent novel. This artwork is unrelated to the interior comic content, resulting in a complete mismatch between cover and stories. As with many issues in the Kral Conan series, this choice reflects Alfa Yayınları’s tendency to use iconic and visually powerful Conan-related artwork to increase visual appeal and sales, regardless of direct relevance to the material inside.
