My Rating “Part Three – Behind The Mask” A gunshot rang out within the half-light of the Gordon House. As Michael O’Donnel wrestled the .38 caliber revolver from Evelyn Gordon’s hands, John Kirowan turned to scan the study for an unseen presence.

My Rating “Tattered Wings” What is the worth of a father’s son? Gold? Artifacts? Immortality?

My Rating “The Frost Giant’s Daughter” Note: This is a remastered version of the story first published by Marvel Comics.

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
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
My Rating “Treasure Of The Vermin Queen” When Fleek spoke of treasure, this was not what Conan had envisioned. In the absence of gold coins, ruby chalices, and all the gilded absoluteness sold to children as a matter of fact, what lay before the Cimmerian made his blood boil. The underground temple held no ver-men
My Rating “Twisting Loyalties Part 04 – Purged” The Mark of Set? An aura of the Snake God? How could such hollow hubris lay so heavy on a child born from stone?
