Conan The Barbarian #22

CONAN THE BARBARIAN #22 is a triumphant return to the visceral, action-packed core of the Cimmerian's legend. It's sharp, macho, and punches you right in the face with its sheer awesomeness. If you're looking for a comic that embodies raw power and compelling storytelling, look no further. This issue is a beast, and you'll love every savage panel. Read Full Review

Conan is forced to fight as a gladiator against all comers in the arena, but although of course we know he's going to win every time, there's a cruel twist that keeps it raw. There's no shortage of evil sorceresses in the Hyborean Age either, but despite the familiar situations Jim Zub keeps the story moving with enough aplomb to mean it doesn't matter because it's such an enjoyable ride. Fernando Dagnino is a somewhat typical Conan artist in the John Buscema vein, but he too brings enough extra flair to make it feel sufficiently fresh. I suspect that if the writer and artist slacked off just a bit this series could easily start to come across as generic, but that hasn't happened yet. They're firing on all cylinders!

This is basically a gladiator story with a twist. His owner not only desires Conan, but she has enough magic to keep him in line. That is, until he gets a special visitor. He has to fight his allies and save Livia. I like how Zub sets characters up to use them later. My Comic Review Channel - https://youtu.be/_lfqj-W5haE
