In 1939 two novels would appear in Unknown that were such sturdy examples of the genre that in the 1970s they would be adapted by Marvel Comics as further tales of none other than Robert E. Howard’s Conan the Cimmerian. These stories, however, started out as something much different and the author behind them was The Spider’s Norvell W. Page. The hero in both stories was Wan Tengri, aka Prester John.
