I enjoy how bizarre these stories around Conan can get. The world is a wild place where just about anything can happen. Conan always seems just a hair away from certain death or being taken advantage of. But between dumb luck and his intelligence, he always seems to get by. I especially like how he's not just some brute with a brain, he's compassionate enough not to force himself on a vulnerable woman. Or at least without someone trying to trick him first.
Another 2 good stories written by Edward and illustrated by 2 diverse authors (Gess and Augustin). I really liked the first one and the second was enjoyable. Looking forward to the next volume where the prose and the illustrations are both present. Altre due belle storie di Edward illustrate da Gess ed Augustin. La prima mi é piaciuta piú della seconda, ma tutte e due erano piacevoli. Aspetto sempre con ansia questi volumi dove alla prosa viene accostata la storia a fumetti, la trovo un'idea gen...
Another great read about Conan. I like these adaptations, as it gives life to the stories. I also like that the actual stories are included, for reading and comparing. Can't wait for the next ones. #TheCimmerianVol3 #NetGalley
Conan is back in two adventures! In "Iron Shadows in the Moon," Conan rescues a runaway girl from a man he was aiming to kill. They escaped to a island haunted by two evils.

Then in "The Man-Eaters of Zamboula," Conan faces down hungry cannibal slaves, a very nasty tavern keeper, and an evil magician while ensnared in local politics. Conan manages to wrangle a way out and en...
Conan is back in two new adventures, Iron Shadows of the Moon and The Man-Eaters of Zamboula. Iron Shadows is the better of the two. For one thing it's got pirates, better art and a better story. Man-Eaters is about some cannibals running all over a city stealing people on the streets away to eat each night. There's a very flimsy excuse to keep a woman running around naked with Conan the entire story. Neither the art or convoluted story are very good.Received a review copy from Ablaze and NetGal...
This is a spoiler free review.The Cimmerian Vol. 3 is awesome. Crom!! Conan is back in two new adventures: "Iron Shadows of the Moon," and "The Man-Eaters of Zamboula." The two stories in this graphic novel are based on the original short stories by Robert E. Howard. Like Volume 1 and 2 of The Cimmerian, the original short stories are included at the end of each story. I really enjoy comparing and contrasting between the comics and the original short stories."Iron Shadows in the Moon," is the fi...
My thanks to NetGalley and the publisher Diamond Book Distributors for an advanced copy of this sword and sorcery graphic novel.Copyright laws are curious thing. One country's trademark is another country's public domain. Hence The Cimmerian, a graphic novel retelling of the classic Robert E. Howard stories, as originally written, adapted and illustrated by various creators from France. Containing, the publisher says all the sex and violence or the original tales, without the racism of the early...
