Kral Conan #25 The Barbarian #235 #238 Turkish Comic Turkey SSOC #100
Kral Conan – Issue #25 – 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. Issued on a biweekly basis between 1999 and 2001, the series ran for a total of 42 issues and is well known among collectors for its irregular editorial approach, combining stories from various original Conan titles without preserving their original reading order.
Issue #25 continues the focus on material from Conan the Barbarian. This issue includes Conan the Barbarian Issues #235 and #238, presenting stories from Conan’s classic barbarian period. The selection skips intermediate issues, which is typical of the Kral Conan series and further highlights its non-linear compilation style.
The cover artwork is taken from The Savage Sword of Conan #100. As with many other issues in this Turkish series, the cover does not match the interior content. Alfa Yayınları frequently used visually striking covers from unrelated Savage Sword issues to attract readers, even when there was no narrative connection to the stories inside.
