Notes
- The Haunters of Castle Crimson is freely adapted from the story The Slave Princess by Robert E. Howard.
- The Hyborian Age is adapted from the homonymous essay by Robert E. Howard. It was later adapted in an abridged version in Conan the Adventurer #5, presenting events from Chapter I: The Pre-Cataclysmic Age (Savage Sword of Conan #7), Chapter II: The Rise of the Hyborians (Savage Sword of Conan #8), and Chapter III: The Hyborian Kingdoms.
- This issue also includes "Chivalry is Alive and Well and Living in Berkeley", a photo-essay look at the Society for Creative Anachronism by Sam J. Maronie.
