Editorial Reviews

Review
" "Conan is an action-packed spectacle, a barbarian blockbuster with a brain, and an epic as intelligent as it is visually stunning."--Wizard Magazine"

Product Description
The critically acclaimed and award-winning creative team behind the runaway-hit revival are back with a brand new adaptation of one of Conan creator Robert E. Howard's best-known tales. Award-winning writer Kurt Busiek and artists Cary Nord and Dave Stewart render the glorious suspense of Howard's beloved "The God in the Bowl" in all its terrifying detail, as well as introducing not only Conan's most famed adversary, Thoth-amon, but a new female foil to Conan's exploits - Janissa, the Widowmaker, bound by a pact to a witch who has sinister plans for Conan.

5.0 out of 5 stars Crom's Teeth!, February 7, 2006
Having never having read comic books as a youngster, the new Conan series was the hook that set my newfound enjoyment of a weekly trip to the local comic shop.

The writing and the artwork led me to purchase some of the other compilations of the writings of Robert E. Howard. Truly, Howard as an author was ahead of his time, both in the prose and the scope of creating a fictional world where men of "...gigantic melancholies and gigantic mirth..." roamed the land. Having now read many of the new comics, as well as the older Howard writings, I can attest that they comics are faithful adaptations to the original works. I would think that Howard would approve of them. Truly, these comics look to me to have a dirty, grimy, and realistic feel to them, compared to other current comics, where clean lines and ink move from one panel to the next.

I would like to think that you will enjoy these compilations as much as I have. I now return to the Hyborian age...

5.0 out of 5 stars Not your usual Conan, March 12, 2007
By fdisk (Miami, FL) - See all my reviews
A big part of this book is a murder mystery, it's a change of pace to the usual Conan; but a very fun read. Cary Nord manages to keep the story interesting with his fantastic art. Another book that won't disappoint.

5.0 out of 5 stars SNAKES!, June 1, 2008
Great art and a thrilling story. I admit I still hold a candle for the original Roy Thomas story that was my first introduction to the amazing world of Conan, but this version ROCKS, too!
