Great artwork

The artwork is great as is the story, a little different as Conan is traveling with a woman from the very beginning verses alone and or charging into combat, sword in hand.

If you enjoy SSOC than this is a definite read, but be aware that although the main story transfers well to kindle, there are a couple of things missing according to the table of contents (copyright something or other, most likely) as in a few previous issues.

Sit back, relax, enjoy, and good reading.
