Conan the Avenger #19 brings the "Blood Oasis" storyline to a rousing close. This story has twisted and turned in ways I hadn't predicted and it's full of everything I love about Conan. It's savage and beautiful, thoughtful and energetic. It's "red" writing"as Stephen King likes to call it"at its best. If you've been reading these reviews, but not picked up the issues, then I strongly suggest you buy issue 20 when it comes out, as it will be the start of an adaptation of one of Howard's greatest Conan stories, "A Witch Shall Be Born." It will make for a good jumping-on point for new readers and should be a helluva tale. Read Full Review
