Parental Advisory
If anything, the biggest knock against this issue is that it suffers from many of the usual tropes of a mid-arc installment, but it still proves to be a relatively enjoyable read. Read Full Review
This issue was a bit too wordy for my tastes. It made the start of the issue slow, and I really didn't get much enjoyment of it until we got to the revolutionaries. I liked that a lot, so there's kind of a whiplash for me.
With might and fury and sharpened steel, doth Conan rage against both the forces of nature and man.
Writer Jim Zub gives us an excellent take on the Cimmerian adventurer in this action-packed issue. I’ve always felt Conan is best when he is not simply portrayed as a muscle-bound brute and Zub does not disappoint giving us a charming and self-reliant Conan that faces both beauty and beast with the same intensity.
Clever, distrustful of authority, and supremely confident in his abilities to the point of getting himself into trouble; Zub’s Conan is highly entertaining while remaining more than capable of getting himself back out of trouble as well.
