As I continue to review the latest Conan the Barbarian releases from Titan Comics, I will mix it up with more Marvel monster books. Frankenstein and Man-Thing are just some of the vintage beasts in the que. Stay tuned for the creature feature.
My Rating “A Nest Of Serpents – Part Three: Power And Influence” A life debt is a powerful thing to hold over anyone’s head. To have such an obligation, even for one such as “Amra Of Akbatana”, can take a lifetime to repay. Fortunately for Conan, his savior is tasked with destroying the voice of
My Rating “Return From The Grave!” Highgate Cemetery – Midnight, the arm shot up from inside the exposed coffin, gripping Dracula with vice-like strength. The skeletal hand was fixed tightly around his undead throat using some unexplainable supernatural phenomena even the prince of evil could not explain. What was this fiend? How dare it lay
My Rating “A Nest Of Serpents – Part Two: Diamond In The Dirt” Into the pit! Conan is now a slave of the Stygian sorcerers of Keshatta, and they want his blood for their grizzly entertainment. As the barbarian locks weapons with a behemoth gladiator, the roar of the crowd fills the arena with fresh

In one such susurration, a warrior; nay a she-devil with a sword, would find herself entangled by half-truths and treachery. This is
My Rating “Edgar Allan Poe’s: The Raven” The raven knocked, knocked so sternly upon the window for a score. It awakened Dr. Craven from his melancholy state, the sorrow he deplore. Upon investigation, the aves, yes the aves, could speak fluent language, the words did flow. Then it revealed to the good Erasmus, it was
My Rating “Conan & Valeria: The Sunless Isle” Conan and Valeria had pillaged the Western Sea in a time preceding the fall of Bêlit, Queen of the Black Coast. The Cimmerian had found an uneasy companionship with the golden-haired beauty. Valeria was a corsair, pirate, and member of the Red Brotherhood; yet she became a
As the Keep continues to grow and technology changes, performing updates and needed adjustments can eat up review time. Over the next few weeks you may see some differences in the website. I assure you that these are necessary. None the less, the Relic Keep will continue to post reviews of both new and vintage
