My Rating “Tattered Wings” What is the worth of a father’s son? Gold? Artifacts? Immortality? In the snow-laid mountains of Hyrkania, Conan will move heaven and earth to rescue the boy of a local warlord. As for Conan’s men, those brash mercenaries from the land of Khitai, would never return to claim their reward. Lurking […]
My Rating “The Coils Tighten” The returning sensation that is The Savage Sword Of Conan has reached the ten issue mark. Jim Zub is here with an elevator-pitch update on things to come. If you haven’t guessed already, it deals with the lands of Stygia. I’m very pleased to find the sword in all of
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 “Mark Of The Beast” Raja, the bowman from Vezek, lay near the campfire, inhaling heavily. The pain from the toxic wound struck deeper into his chest with every breath.

My Rating “King Conan: The Ensorcelled – Part 03 The Woods Of The Witchbreaker” Surrounded by the Brethren of the Briar on his descent down the Graaskal Mountains, Conan readies himself for battle.

My Rating “King Conan: The Ensorcelled – Part One” It is a time of unrest between two kingdoms. As Conan, now king of all Aquilonia, arrives in the Borderlands to negotiate peace with the Brythunians, witches have reaped havoc on their local villages. Or, so King Fabiano claims. Now, Conan and his Black Dragons are
My Rating “Battle Of The Black Stone” “A Stone’s Throw Away” Jim Zub begins this issue of Savage Sword Of Conan with a preface of back history, so to speak. In this introduction, we find out just what inspired the writers and producers at Titan Comics in the pre-production days of their Conan revival. Zub
My Rating “Conan: Wolves Of The Tundra” The trap had been laid, or so the family thought. A savage, created by the very curse which flowed through their own veins, had been systematically killing those responsible for infecting him. Now the beast was at their front door looking to end the nightmare with a ferocious
My Rating “Conan: Leaving The Garden” Conan lay in wait as a young boy brought him diverted rations and life sustaining water. It had been days since the wounded Cimmerian had clawed his way to the surface of an unmarked grave, only to find himself sheltered by the child in a small grove of trees
