Review

"Look no further if you seek a ripping yarn that is true to the spirit ofthe Bard of Cross Plains, Texas--Robert E. Howard!"--/

"The art is fantastic. It's a really goodread."--

"This is such a fantastic thing to read--to see Conan unchained and asbrutal as he wants is a breath of fresh air."

"This is the way Conan was meant to be!Howard's barbarian at his most savage and ruthless. Conan has always beenone of my favorite characters in comics and I've often referred to theMarvel fare as Conan lite. Ablaze's Conan full and robust. If you'venever read the original stories you may have to take it in small doses. But onceyou've gotten used to it by the gods! There isn't anythingbetter."-
