A Conan animated series is currently in development for Prime Video by Genndy Tartakovsky (Primal, Samurai Jack). The series will reportedly be set during the Queen of the Black Coast phase of Conan’s life.
Conan and his world and adventures are male fantasies. Those women who do enjoy them are more than welcome but nothing needs to be changed to better suit women’s tastes and sensibilities in general. It is okay to have his and her things. Conan is a his thing.
Due to some personal family issues in the last year occupying my attention, I haven’t done anything on this platform in some time; but I’m still reading Conan comics and related materials. I finally found time to read this Solomon Kane pastiche novel which I enjoyed a lot.
An auspicious beginning to the Solomon Kane miniseries, which will likely determine the Puritan’s comics future. Writer/artist/colorist Patrick Zircher takes a deep dive into European history with a Kane twist in what seems like a real passion project for him. 👍🏻 ⚔️
While I have enjoyed every issue of Titan’s Savage Sword, issue 7 may be my favorite. To have the venerable Conan scribe Roy Thomas teamed with Roberto de la Torre’s art in this issue is everything classic SSoC fans have dreamed of.

We all know Conan was “born on the battlefield.” But what of his mother? The REH canon gives no definitive answer. Some adaptations has had her live. The recent Titan comic has her die on the battlefield. What say you? Should Conan know his mother or not? Why or why not?
I understand that comics are a visual medium, so it’s hard to resist, but I’m always a bit bugged by the conflation of Solomon Kane’s Puritanism with Catholicism. Catholicism is a visual imagery rich religion, but Puritans viewed veneration of such imagery as idolatry.
Conan Comics, by Crom! retweeted
The first Conan comic EVER! With Marvel comics in October of 1970, Conan hit the comic book pages for an epic 275 issue run! If you want to hear more about how this mighty saga came to be, check out our podcast with THE ROY THOMAS on our YouTube channel, linked in our bio!
