Conan the Barbarian
The Age Unconquered
This third volume of the new ongoing comic series is perfect for fans of Robert E. Howard and his immortal creation, Conan the Barbarian. Filled with high adventure, savage combat and rollicking two fisted action! In Conan, Howard forged not only a whole new genre – sword and sorcery, but also created a truly legendary character and a thousand pale imitators. After 90 years Conan still going strong! BY CROM!
Often emulated, but never overshadowed, the first and finest hero of sword & sorcery will strive and slay as a Cimmerian must!
Sent back in time to the Thurian Age, Conan battles terrifying creatures and meets Kull the Conqueror, a barbarian-king as strong as himself. Although these two legends begin at odds, they quickly realise they must quest together to stop the dark machinations of Thulsa Doom, an ancient necromancer who has contacted a mysterious evil beyond time and space to strengthen his already impressive mystic power.
This third volume of Conan the Barbarian features an action-packed story written by Jim Zub that would make Robert E. Howard proud and dynamic pulp-infused artwork by Rob de la Torre! These two titans of the comic world have breathed new life into one of the most recognisable characters in fiction and, in doing so, unleash a fantastic tale for readers, new and old!
