However in the United Kingdom and many other countries, the stories, elements and characters created by an author enter the public domain 70 years after their death. The creator of Conan and Hyboria, Robert E. Howard, died in 1936. His original stories, ideas, characters, and elements, including those featuring Conan the Barbarian and Hyboria, become part of the UK public domain as of January 1, 2007. No publisher may claim rights to his material. His stories and the characters portrayed within them, including Conan the Barbarian, are public property, free for any and all to use as they wish.
