Conan

Dark Horse's Conan (2005–2017) adapts Robert E. Howard's original stories with a gritty, reverent fidelity, anchored by the scripting of Kurt Busiek and Tim Truman and the sweeping, visceral art of Cary Nord and Tomás Giorello. Spanning 21 issues, this series revitalized the Cimmerian for a modern audience by grounding his savage adventures in the brooding Hyborian Age, often drawing directly from Howard's prose. It stands as a definitive comics take on the character, bridging classic pulp and contemporary storytelling.
