Gorm the Pict is a fierce warrior who appears in several Conan the Barbarian comic stories. He comes from the Pictish tribes who live beyond Aquilonia’s western border. The Picts are known for their survival skills, stealth, and brutal fighting style, and Gorm represents all of these traits.
In the comics, Gorm often serves as a scout, raider, or tribal leader. His clashes with Conan show the long conflict between the Picts and the civilized kingdoms of the Hyborian Age. Gorm respects strength and courage, which makes his battles with Conan some of the most intense in the frontier tales. His presence helps define the dangers of the wilderness and the constant threat the Pict tribes pose.
This portrayal stays true to the spirit of Robert E. Howard’s original vision for the Picts, while expanding Gorm’s role through comic-book storytelling.

My Rating “The Valley of the Worm” Bragi’s clan had been slaughtered there in the place of broken stone.

My Rating “Curse Of The Undead-Man” The cut-purse thugs had swarmed Conan in a darkened alleyway by chance, but what the Cimmerian had found on the cobblestone moments ago was worth killing for. The Maul district of Zamora had never been safe to traverse at any hour of the day, but at night, only seasoned
