Edited by Leo Grin | Illustrated by Andrew Cryer This issue was printed in a deluxe edition, numbered 1–75, using a black linen cover with foil-stamped midnight blue text.<\/p>\n DELUXE COPIES DESTROYED: 9<\/p>\n Features a comprehensive series of indexes and supplementary material covering the fourth year of The Cimmerian<\/em> (Volume 4, Numbers 1–6, plus Awards Issue, 2007). Includes Title Indexes, Author and Subject Indexes, Contributor’s Guide, a Catalogue of Art and more.<\/p>\n This special index issue is only available in a deluxe edition, and is the perfect capstone to your deluxe Volume 4 collection.<\/p>\n EXCERPTS:<\/strong><\/p>\n But although our fandom slowed down somewhat in 2007, browsing through this Index will remind you that the Father of Sword-and-Sorcery’s legacy stops for no one. There were no less than four major Howard gatherings this year: Howard Days, the Windy City Pulp Show, Pulp Con, and Gen Con, and The Cimmerian<\/em> covered them all. New discoveries continued to startle us, including the first images of Howard’s typewriter, pictures of the Howard House before it had been renovated, a study of yet another place where Howard once had his photograph taken, and of course the unearthing of a typescript of “Cimmeria” signed by Howard himself. Two anniversaries were duly celebrated: the 75th anniversary of Conan, the fiftieth of Always Comes Evening<\/em>.<\/p>\n — from “Envoi — 2007”<\/em><\/p>\n Darrell’s main contribution this year was “The Gods Rage at Us,” a particularly fine bit of verse from the now-former editor of Weird Tales<\/em>. In The Lion’s Den, meanwhile, he remained quite busy insisting that the long-abandoned ruin of Fort de Camp was still a thriving concern. I am reminded of Henry Fonda’s doomed Colonel Thursday in John Ford’s Fort Apache<\/em>, lamenting that an accomplished leader like himself had been sent to the frontier to “ward off the gnat stings and flea bites of a few cowardly ‘digger Indians’.” Oh well…as Menelaus expresses so powerfully in The Iliad<\/em>, “Even a fool learns something once it hits him.”<\/p>\n — from “Guide to the Contributors”<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Edited by Leo Grin | Illustrated by Andrew Cryer 40 pages This issue was printed in a deluxe edition, numbered 1–75, using a black linen cover with foil-stamped midnight blue text.
