Notes
- Red Shadows and Black Kraken! is based on the novel Conan of the Isles by L. Sprague de Camp and Lin Carter.
- Although the issue announced that the sequel would be published the following year, Conan the Barbarian Annual #8 doesn't include such stories. The story was later republished in Marvel Graphic Novel #42: Conan of the Isles (1988), as the first part of a three-chapter story.
