    Yeah, that's one of the problems with the Benbarb listings.
    They can be a little misleading at times, although lately them seem to have gotten better about identifying whats repro on their figures.
    They do sell quite a few of those on a consistant basis, I'll give them that.

    My Conan I consider to be a custom since he's assembled on one of the original Zica bodies, like one of our museum members did awhile back.
    I really like that 'beefier' look. Even fashioned a custom card to display him on.

      Good eye! I looked it up, and it was the splash page for SSoC, # 5, "A Witch Shall be Born" and the art credit is to John Buscema and The Tribe. I think Alcala was connected to the Tribe somehow, despite fellow Filipino Tony DeZuniga running it; yet, this suggests it was DeZuniga, himself. Whatever the case, it was definitely a Filipino inker--you can tell by the painterly quality of the inks.

        Is there going to be a confirmed released date and preorders for Conan soon? Really looking forward to this one.
