This adaptation captures the raw intensity of desire and the dangers that accompany it, embodying the essence of Conan's character.

“This is the way Conan was meant to be! Howard’s barbarian athis most savage and ruthless. Conan has always been one of my favoritecharacters in comics and I’ve often referred to the Marvel fare as Conanlite. Ablaze’s Conan full and robust. If you’ve never read theoriginal stories you may have to take it in small doses. But once you’vegotten used to it by the gods! There isn’t anything better.”-www.OUTRIGHTGEEKERY.COM
