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 “Twisting Loyalties Part 02 – Fangs & Foolish Thieves Part 02” In a lavish inn near the Kyros market district, Conan and Bêlit strike a pact with one of the cutthroats who invaded their room.

My Rating “Twisting Loyalties Part 01 – Fangs & Foolish Thieves” For many months, Conan sailed under the pirate flag of Bêlit of Shem – the infamous Queen of the Black Coast. As the two lovers raided merchant ships along the coastal waters of the Western Sea, they grew rich off the vast amount of
My Rating “The Age Unconquered Part 02 – Far Shores & Fearless Men” Pulled into the distant past by a black stone obelisk, Conan finds himself allied with the King of Valusia.

My Rating “Thrice Marked For Death! – Part 04 Sacrifice” Possessed! The ghastly wraiths freed by Conan’s own hands did not emerge from Tarim’s Touch unpurposed.

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.

My Rating Queen Of The Black Coast – Part 02 And thus, Conan and Bêlit gazed upon the ruined city through the backlight of dawn. The fabled decadence of the white towered kingdom and its jade temples had been consumed by the jungle eons ago. But what of its denizens? Had their ancestors perished from
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
