Conan Graphic Novel

Arrived when it was supposed to, and in very good condition. Packaged with care! Thank you.

Like Arnold the Barbarian

This Conan saga is very much in keeping with the Conan movie that Governor Arnold made famous, and very much like REH portrayed in his stories of the adventurous Cimmerian... Like the movie, Conan in this graphic novel is paired up with a sniveling complaining cohort who helps bring levity to a very dark story. And as in most of REH's stories Conan is pretty much out for himself... The artwork is top notch, especially the coloring; it is lush and sets a dark malevolent mood of danger and adventure. I have almost all the Conan Graphic novels and I feel this one while different is on par with those by Cary Nord, the artistic genius and the many others that have been allowed to render Conan. And in many respects I prefer this one because the coloring is beyond the softness of Nord's books and there is a lot more black on these pages making the characters more solid looking. This may not be an REH story, but it is very much like the Conan movie, which I feel is an incredible interpretation of REH's Conan.
