Genesis West Announces Original Art Archives Volume 1: Red Nails Featuring Conan
September 30, 2013

Genesis West Publishing confirmed today the release of its first major oversize art book. ORIGINAL ART ARCHIVES VOLUME 1: RED NAILS features the legendary CONAN tale as adapted from Robert E. Howard’s pulp classic by comics legends Roy Thomas and Barry (Windsor) Smith.

As publisher of this work and a lifelong comic art fan Mike Thibodeaux,who was also Jack Kirby’s inker in later years, puts it: "I’ve had the chance to look over Barry’s art on this job at great length and I can tell you, we really hit it out of the park on this one. With the reproduction in this book, it’s basically like you’re looking at the actual original art itself. When the fans get to see the book for themselves they’ll see that this piece is truly in a class of it's own- the printing, the design, the bonus pages with enlargements- even the slipcase that each book comes in- these are all as good as they come. On top of that we have a few other little extras and we got people like Roy Thomas, Jose Villarrubia and George Perez to contribute some of the articles. But mainly, I think the fans out there will be just as blown away as I was when I first laid eyes on the art."
