This team does it again. Giorello and Villarrubia create such amazing art that’s perfect for a serious and bloody Conan. I’m reading the original R.E. Howard stories right now and the images by these guys (plus Frazetta art) are running through my head as I read. I think Truman’s writing has actually added something that raises this up a little bit from the pulpy melodrama of the original stories. I really think they’ve captured the intensity of Conan without making him a shallow poser.
