IRON SHADOWS IN THE MOON #1

Writer: Robert E. Howard, Virginie Augustin
Art: Virginie Augustin 
Cover A: Brian Level
Cover B: Virginie Augustin
Cover C: Kajo Baldisimo
Cover D: Fritz Casas

Robert E. Howard's Conan is brought to life UNCENSORED!  
Discover the true Conan, unrestrained, violent, and sexual.  Read the story as he intended!

A young woman in danger is pursued by her vile master. Conan, whose family has just been wiped out by this same master, puts an end to the beauty's pursuer, and saves her with a blow of his sword. Bound by fate, the couple decide to hit the road together. Their journey takes them to an island where they discover strange ruins inhabited by dark magic. Their paradise-like refuge soon turns into a suffocating nightmare where shadows lurk. Who knows the extent of the dangers that lie there?   They will quickly learn that on an island, the biggest threat does not always come from the outside...

Iron Shadows in the Moon reveals the genius of its author in describing universes as singular as they are mysterious. With her line, both delicate and powerful, Virginie Augustin illustrates this oppressive and mystical atmosphere, and gives the story a new graphic breath.

THE CIMMERIAN VOLUME 2 
THE FROST GIANTS DAUGHTER & 
THE PEOPLE OF HE BLACK CIRCLE
Writers: Sylvain Runberg, Robin Recht
Art: Jae Kwang Park, Robin Recht 
Cover: Robin Recht, Jae Kwang Park

BY CROM! 
Robert E. Howard's famous Cimmerian UNCENSORED! 
Discover the true Conan, unrestrained, violent, and sexual. Read the story as he intended! 

The Cimmerian Vol 2 includes two complete stories, The People of The Black Circle, and The Frost-Giant's Daughter, plus bonus material, including the original prose stories, in one hardcover collection!

In The People of the Black Circle, the king has just died in the kingdom of Vendhya, struck down by the spells of the black prophets of Yimsha. The king's sister, Yasmina, decides to avenge him…and contacts Conan. Sylvain Runberg and prodigious designer/illustrator Jae Kwang Park adapt one of the most ambitious and complex Conan stories of Robert E. Howard. An adventure where epic battles, witchcraft and plots mingle in a mystical and scary Orient. Where revenge is an art…

In The Frost-Giant's Daughter, Conan, the only survivor of a ferocious battle, sits in the midst of a bloodstained snow field. When the fight is over, the Cimmerian suddenly finds himself overcome with deep weariness and disgust. Until the moment he meets a redheaded woman of supernatural beauty, blinding like the glow of the sun on the snow. A mythical tale both in both form and substance, The Frost-Giant's Daughter is masterfully adapted by Robin Recht, who manages to capture the essence of this whirlwind tale of violent desire…a true love trap in which the force of will of the Cimmerian is put to the test.

Hardcover, 7x10, 168 pages, Full Color, $24.99, On sale June 2.

Conan le Cimmérien - Le dieu dans le sarcophage 
(The God in the Bowl)
Now available!

Taking advantage of a discretion that only the night can offer, Conan infiltrates a sumptuous palace to steal a cup representing a rapid enrichment. As discreet as a feline, he is only spotted by the guard Arus because he believes he recognizes in him a fellow criminal. Without knowing it, Conan has just presented himself as the ideal culprit for the murder of Kallian Publico, the wealthy and hated owner of the temple in which he came to steal ...

In The God in the Bowl, the work of Robert E. Howard meets that of Agatha Christie for a narrative in the form of an investigation where each actor and spectator of the crime takes turn in control of the narration. An investigation led by masters by the brilliant screenwriter Doug Headline and the designer Emmanuel Civiello.
