March will see
the return of a familiar name to the stands as Dynamite Entertainment
launches Savage Tales, a new bi-monthly, 48-page ($4.99)
series which will be a throwback, in a sense, to pulp anthology
titles of the past.
If the name
rings a bell, especially among older fans, the last time anything
"Savage Tales was on the stands was in the early '70s, as
a home for Conan while the Robert E. Howard property was at Marvel.
While the title was revived briefly in the '80s, the name hasn't
been seen since.
The first issue of the new series will feature stories set in the
world of Red Sonja, Cthulu, and Atlantis, with covers by Arthur
Suydam, Mel Rubi and Richard Isanove.
 
The line-up of stories for March's #1 is:
Red Sonja
(part 1) by Ron Marz, Adriano Batista
Gleaming Atlantis
by writers Leah Moore and John Reppion with artists Pablo Marcos
and Stjepan Sejic
The Hunter
-- from the pages of Red Sonja -- from writers Luke Lieberman and
Michael Avon Oeming with artist Matt Smith
Cthulu and
The Old Ones by Mike Raict and artist Pere.
The publisher has provided Newsarama with a preview
and design art from issue #1.
