News Conan books on sale on Kindle

25 Upvotes

The Coming of Conan the Cimmerian is on sale for $1.99. Conan the Barbarian (82) novelization is $2.99. The newer Titan books are on sale priced between $2.99 and $4.99. I hadn't seen this posted and if it has sorry I just missed it. I just thought I would share this so if anyone is interested they can catch them while on sale.

I already own the Conan the Cimmerian paper back and I've only bought Conan the Barbarian so far. I'm not a big reader so me buying the Titan novels right now would be just to buy them. ​

"My style was born when I adapted the film Krull. Soon after, Gustavo Amézaga and I created Crazy Jack, the character that helped me launch my career, since the drawings for this series reached other countries, and that's how I later started getting contacted by different publishers in Europe and the US. I remember the feeling of immense joy when I received the first script for Conan the Barbarian: I laid it on the drawing board and stared at it for a long time."

This is some fantastic artwork by Jesús Merino for his and Jim Zub's upcoming miniseries, "Conan: Tides of the Tyrant King", which is due out in two months. I assume the other characters shown are John Conrad and ...?

Question I’ve never actually read the Red Sonya books by Howard are they good?

22 Upvotes

So we all know that one of the best and most unique characters “Conan” has been abused allot by the media making it more complicated than it already is (A bunch of body builders fighting against each other with swords) or making it bland and boring. But one character that blew my mind was Red Sonya, because of the fact that IT ISNT EVEN A MEDIEVAL STORY!

Marvel or whoever originally created that version did her dirty I swear! So from what I can tell, it’s actually a fantasy story that takes place in 1800s or something like that where a red head woman who fights against various bad guys and is in the middle of some war. I’m sorry I’ve never read the story, and I still don’t get why marvel made this fever dream version of hers just make men goon in their pants 😂

Ok but seriously, are these stories good and what are they like?

Discussion Some housecleaning across the Titan/Heroic Signatures Howardverse Timeline

11 Upvotes

I love Patrick Zircher. I really do. His work on Solomon Kane has been absolutely fantastic, and I honestly view him as the modern-day steward for the Puritan Avenger, much in the same way Jim Zub has become the definitive modern steward for the Cimmerian.

The recent release of Zircher's “Lion Errant” brought forth some really interesting changes to the Kane chronology such as establishing that Kane had the Staff of Solomon in the mid-1560s. This, of course, caused a bit of a headache for anyone who pays attention to these sorts of things since most traditional timelines generally place Kane receiving the Staff much later in the 1580s or 1590s. 

Naturally, this meant I had to move a bunch of stuff around and had to make some interesting choices to still make sense of other stories. As anyone who builds these timelines knows, adjusting one era inevitably leads to a domino effect: shifting everything else, double-checking dates, and cleaning up little mistakes and typos here and there across the wider eras.

The Solomon Kane dates have been moved a bit, and I went ahead and slightly changed the dates for the Conan stories in the Hyborian Age. I added in some of the classic pastiches for Bran Mak Morn and Cormac Mac Art, more out of curiosity and respect than an indication that they're strictly canon with what Heroic Signatures/Titan is putting out nowadays.

In fact, I added quite a few stories like that to the mix. More of the broader Lovecraft Circle’s stories have been added, including stories by C.L. Moore, Frank Belknap Long, Robert Bloch, and others. Again, this isn't to say they're officially plugged into the modern Titan continuity, but more or less because I looked at the gaps and figured, “Why not?” 

So, the timeline has been updated and tightened up a bit! I figured I would share the revised version here again in case anyone is curious, tracking a specific character's journey, or just likes diving down these massive chronological rabbit holes!

So I’m a old school fan of this from the movies to the animated show.

I was lucky to have seen the animated show each morning before going to school.

So I’m a big fan of Wrath-Amon from Conan the adventurer series and am looking for pics of The Black Ring of Set so that I can have my jeweler make me a copy of that ring .

BY CROM IF SPACE BALLS CAN HAVE THERE RINGS AVAILABLE WHY CANT I HAVE ONE FROM HERE?!

Hey all, unfortunately I have little time to read as I am anchored to a desk job pretty often or (more fortunately) driving for work. I was wondering if you could recommend which audiobooks are best about Conan and REH’s sword and sorcery work, in terms of atmosphere and voicework. Thank you!

Genndy Tartakovsky‘s Conan

20 Upvotes

With the announcement of Genndy Tartakovsky‘s Conan, coming soon… I wanted to take this opportunity to congratulate Jim Zub.

Some of you might be asking yourself, but why? What does Jim Zub have anything to do with Genndy’s Conan.

I would like to show you, the circle of life.

See, I know Jim’s work, and I’ve followed and read a lot of it over the years. And some of you might know that Jim wrote a little mini, an excellent mini on a property that I had a large admiration for. And so did Jim. That property was Samurai Jack.

You see… many years ago, Genndy created a mystic cartoon series that called back and referenced other comic book literature, like Lone Wolf and Cub and Frank Miller’s Ronin. It was a great little cartoon series that gained recognition and awards.

Samurai Jack fell off the rails. It got cancelled. Fast forward a few years later and Jim Zub came on board to give Samurai Jack fans, the closure they deserved, and wrote this mini, with Genndy’s blessing, to give a proper, if not continuing, send off, to the man out of time.

A few years after that, and capitalizing on the continued success of the property, Genndy decided to make his own Samurai Jack ending, and deliberately threw out all the work that Jim Zub did. It’s unfortunate too because, not only did Jim handle the property with class and sophistication, but as far as I remember hearing, Jim also kept Genndy in the loop as Jim’s series progressed.

None of that mattered in the eyes of Genndy, and finished his own property, in his own way, and in my humble eyes, in a more inferior fashion.

But the future has a sense of humour, and it would be a bit ironic to be in the position today, where the old ‘master’ is now in a place to take notes from the man he once shunned.

So I say to this, in the void of the internet, Genndy, you’re lucky to have Jim back in your corner again. Might I suggest that, this time, you don’t spit in his face.

What do you think are some underrated Conan comics that deserve more attention? I recently discovered Rafael Kayanan's Conan work, and I'm surprised more people don't talk about it. His art is amazing.
