We have got the covers for Heroic Signatures and Titan Comics new Conan the Barbarian mini-series “Conan the Barbarian: Battle of the Black Stone #1” to check out below.
It’ll be a remarkable four-parter as it’ll feature crossovers from Robert E. Howard’s gallery of galleries, it’s written by D&D’s Jim Zub and illustrated by Jonas Scharf of Basilisk.
Battle Of The Black Stone continues what started as a special issue on Free Comic Book Day in which a strange black stone sigil appeared to Robert E. Howard creations such as Dark Agnes, Solomon Kane and Conan.
Jim Zub told fans;
Battle of the Black Stone uses story threads we’ve been weaving in right from the start, from last year’s Conan the Barbarian #0 Free Comic Day issue and our entire first year.”
The mysteries and powers of the Black Stone are one of the pillars I put into my original proposal for the series and, now that we have momentum, we can really go all out in telling this epic tale of pulp-inspired adventure across the ages. Black Stone is a mysterious material that showed up in multiple Robert E. Howard prose stories and we’re using it to link not just Conan’s Hyborian age to Kull’s Thurian age, but other points in time and characters from those eras as well.”
The series goes on sale in September.
