History
Know, O prince, that between the years when the oceans drank Atlantis and the gleaming cities, and the rise of the sons of Aryas, there was an Age undreamed of, when shining kingdoms lay spread across the world like blue mantles beneath the stars. Hither came Conan, the Cimmerian, black-haired, sullen-eyed, sword in hand, a thief, a reaver, a slayer, with gigantic melancholies and gigantic mirth, to tread the jeweled thrones of the Earth under his sandaled feet. 
History of character is unknown.

Notes
Conan the Barbarian. Conan the Conqueror. Conan the King. Created by Robert Howard, later licensed by Marvel, now under license to Dark Horse. As it tends to do, Marvel introduced a number of unique characters through the Conan books over which it remains in full control. Similarly, a number of characters central to the Conan story (such as his patron deity, Crom), have sporadic but important roles in the early history of Marvel's Earth. This profile should focus only on Marvel's involvement with the character, and with whatever implied or referenced background is necessary.
