CONAN THE CIMMERIAN #4

Timothy Truman (W), Tomás Giorello (P), Richard Corben (P), José Villarrubia (C), and Frank Cho (Cover) On sale Oct 15 FC, 32 pages $2.99 Ongoing Conan finds himself at odds with Horsa-an Aesir leader last seen in 'The Frost Giant's Daughter'-when he tries to protect his former Cimmerian lover, Caollan, from Horsa's strange war party. Conan faces off against some strong Aesir soldiers, as well as the colorful-yet-foolhardy berserker Thorgeir and the powerful witch Olva. Being caught in the middle of a blood feud between Cimmerian and Aesir chiefs is bad enough, but things get much worse when Olva summons the demonic Skrae to hunt down Conan and his secretive ward. Richard Corben's flashback sequences-featuring Conan's grandfather, Connacht-take a surprising turn when they dovetail into the present for an exciting cliffhanger! Conan the Cimmerian continues Dark Horse Comics' unique exploration of Robert E. Howard's most beloved character.
