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 “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 “The Crimson Calypso” Hyboria has as many legends as it does heroes. Some are celebrated through song and poetry, while others are mere whispers, passed like vagabonds from lip to ear.

Nearby, Rolando Zarza and the remaining members of the Bensaid expedition have reached the outskirts of the vale temple. As Nico
My Rating “The Serpent Ring – Part 03: Till Death Do Us Part“ The expedition has reached inland but Abramo Bensaid and Solomon Kane have grown suspicious of their new guide, Father Goncallo. The priest had lost his ministry weeks prior to a tribe of godless savages, but his demeanor is unbecoming even for a
My Rating “The Serpent Ring – Part 02: Deliver Us Into Evil” An ancient evil has taken control of the Sao Mancos Mission and Father Goncallo doesn’t seem to be the same person. As his flock begins to rebuild a new, across the African plain and ocean divide, Solomon Kane has kept his promise by
My Rating “The Serpent Ring – Part 01: Dead Man’s Promise” The spears flew past Paolo Laurenti as he ran through the jungle brush, the scream from one of his porters erupted just ahead. The natives were not known for their accuracy in the dark. However, where aim was a hindrance, the number of missiles
