Conan

Conan has got to be one of the best comics going right now.  Rob at Madness games got me to read my first issue about a year and a half ago and I have been hooked ever since.  Any other Conan fans out there?

I’ve been a huge Conan fan my whole life. I read every one of Howard’s original stories as a kid, not to mention just about every other novel, comic, graphic novel, and magazine. So, when Dark Horse was bring my fav Barbarian back to life I knew I had to be there. I been reading the new series from issue #0, and the story telling of Busiek and Nord has been magical. They have really capture the essence of Robert E. Howard in their spellbinding yarns. I was sad to hear that issue #25 will be their last together. Then in a few months Kurt leaves for good, and will be replaced by Mignola. I do look forward to see what direction Miginola takes, but I was hope to get a few more classic tales from Kurt before he left.

He who has the most Toys when we die wins.

I think Mignola will do a good job.  It is an end of an era though.  These guys have been so good for so long.  I really considered it the best done comic I have read in the past two years.
