CONAN THE BARBARIAN #25
Now available!

Written by Jim Zub, Christopher Priest, Larry Hama & Dan Slott
Art by Cory Smith, Roberto De La Torre, Paul Davidson & Marcos Martín
Cover by Geof Shaw

By Crom and Mitra, it’s been 300 issues since Roy Thomas and Barry Windsor-Smith first brought the Barbarian to comics in 1970’s CONAN THE BARBARIAN #1! CONAN’s oversized 300th-issue spectacular kicks off with Jim Zub and Cory Smith’s ongoing saga, as we return to Conan’s much-lauded days sailing with the queen of the seas herself, BÊLIT! But – past, present and future will collide in ways unexpected and strange!

Sharpen your blade for three additional, all-new tales from across Conan history! Dan Slott enters the Hyborian Age with Marcos Martín, for an untold NIGHT OF OBLIVION from Conan’s thieving days.  Larry Hama and Christopher Priest at last return to the saga with their own new stories — from a hotheaded young barbarian in battle to an aged KING CONAN, who must defend his kingdom from the re-emergence of WRAARL, the DEVOURER OF SOULS!

Full Color, 40 pages, $4.99.

This is the final issue for the time being.
King Conan #1 premieres in December 2021!

King Conan #1 
Coming December  15!

Written by Jason Aaron
Art by Mahmud Asrar
Color by Matt Wilson

This will be a six issue mini-series.

In the story, Conan becomes restless sitting on the throne of Aquilonia, deciding to venture out by ship in search of new adventures which Marvel states will "take the story of Conan further than has ever been revealed in any media to date!"

Along the way, old evils will rear their heads and new challenges will arise, all building toward the conclusion of Aaron's personal Conan saga.
