Rated T+
Avengers: No Road Home #6 could have been a real mess. It could have been a rote team-up, made only to move readers to the new Conan line or to give the series that "Wolverine Bump" just with a Barbarian instead of the Ol' Canucklehead. But the team here really rises to the occasion, for the audience and the story, making Conan's modern Marvel debut feel like the moment it should be. By Crom, I can't wait for more. Read Full Review
Marvel Comics has cleverly snuck a Conan comic into an Avenger comic with great results. This has everything you'd want in a Conan book and I'd even wager it's a good place to start for Conan the Barbarian virgins. Make no mistake, Avengers: No Road Home is filled with surprises " this issue is proof of that. Read Full Review
No Road Home #6 devotes itself almost entirely to the event's surprise guest star, Conan the Barbarian. While it unfolds into a good Conan yarn in itself, the links to the larger event are surprisingly thorough and impressively clever. If you're already following the event, this is going to do a great job of turning you into an enthusiastic supporter of Conan's imminent arrival in the main Marvel universe. Read Full Review
This issue of No Road Home is almost a completely different book from the rest of the series, and it finds a way to work on multiple levels. Read Full Review
I'm really on the fence about Conan being in an Avengers tale. This was okay, because he was only around Wanda. I'm really apprehensive about his further appearances in this series. That aside, this follows the typical Conan comic book plot: seek a treasure, fight a monster, encounter minions, interrupt a ritual, and battle the giant monster that appears. This is as typical as Conan stories get, just with an Avenger in tow. The visuals are good, but this is a dip in storytelling. Been there, done that — decades ago. Read Full Review
A thrilling story showing how the disparate worlds of the Avengers and Conan the Barbarian ultimately work well together. Read Full Review
Its nice to see more Conan for Marvel. With this crossover and titles like Conan and Blit, it almost feels like the barbarian was never really gone. That being said, this crossover doesnt REALLY feel like a crossover. Its just...Scarlet Witch hanging out with a barbarian. It wont really start to feel dynamic until the second half of the ten-part mini-series really sets in next issue with greater integration between the realm of Marvel and the realm of Robert E. Howard. Read Full Review
Easily the best issue of No Road Home and better than any issue part of No Surrender. I’ve never read a Conan comic before but I loved him here and our trio of writers made me care about him. Wanda Maximoff is a top 5 favorite character for me but after Busiek’s Avengers and House of M, she has been used sparingly and written with little to know depth, but that all changes in this issue. It’s an extra long issue, so the story develops fluidly. Wanda and Conan are drawn beautifully while I like their romance better than Wanda and Brother Voodoo, I’m a firm believer Wanda and Vision belong together. This is one of the best comics I’ve read in a while and I look forward to next issue. No Road Home improves upon No Surrender greatly bmore
The best use of the Scarlet Witch in years. Before going nuts in Avengers Disassembled, Wanda had always been one mainstay of the Avengers and in this saga she reclaims the role. Great team-up with Conan and intriguing developments for the Hulk. This is a classic saga.
Wanda has an all-out Conan adventure as the Cimmerian joins her quest for Nyx's shard. It is certainly different but also certainly great; Conan couldn't ask for a better reintroduction to the Marvel universe. Tons of fun in itself and strongly linked to series' larger story, this might be No Road Home's high-water mark. This issue delivers big on characterization as well as action; it sketches a fine portrait of Conan and carves out a fascinating place in his world for Wanda. Exceptional art, too.
Conan just makes everything better. So does Immortal Hulk. They're both so great, man.
It was great. No matter how the purists see it. This issue was well done by the writing team and Zub's touches were good. It had me interested in Conan and i really don't give a damn about him at all. Sean Izaakse is outstanding here. I think it's his best work yet. Greatly enhanced by Ramos and Menyz's colors which made full service of all hues of the rainbow. Great job everyone!!
It hasn't been since Original Sin that we got an event where certain characters team up that you'd never imagine teaming up. Here, we get Conan and Scarlet Witch. While it could've been handled terribly (and there's even a moment where the writers hint at how aware they are of that), and this particular team-up takes up the good majority of the issue, it still ends up being a really entertaining read, and a rather core issue. When it shifts gears to the other characters in this event, in that brief period of time it ends with perhaps the most pivotal moment of the entire series, one that is the equivalent to Hulk returning in No Surrender.
I can’t deal with Conan and Scarlet Witch just hanging out like it ain’t no thing.
Had zero expectations of Conan working well with the main Marvel Universe, but this sets a very good example.
Maybe it's because it was yet another high priced issue, maybe it was because I have no interest in Conan, but I found this... boring? I'm dropping this book.
