Who is Bull of Anu?
Few mythic figures carry the weight of their name quite like the Bull of Anu, a creature born from the Bronze Age imagination of Len Wein, Mike Friedrich, and George Tuska in Marvel's Astonishing Tales #8 back in 1971. This ancient, formidable presence has crossed paths with none other than Conan the Barbarian himself, which tells you everything about the savage, sword-and-sorcery world this entity inhabits. Rare in the catalog but resonant in impact, the Bull of Anu is the kind of mythological force that makes Conan's Hyborian Age feel genuinely vast and steeped in dark legend — a reminder that the greatest Bronze Age comics drew on something older and wilder than mere superheroics.
