Cover Art

With its yellow highlights, Nick Marinkovich's cover design immediately draws readers' attention to Conan's imprisoned eyes. The cover art is visually appealing, encouraging potential readers to experience the series. 

Interior

Despite waiting, Jim Zub consistently publishes a packed comic book issue for his monthly readers. The script by Zub has dynamic pacing, with full storytelling, swordplay, and pulp fantasy. If the story's ending is set for the next issue or in ten. It's amazing how smoothly the content is presented here. The Conquering Crown's next chapter is set up nicely by the welcoming party for Conan, which advances this narrative. The issue's cliffhanger works in both fantasy and reality. 

The artwork is a dynamic visual experience due to versatile paneling, lighting, and coloring. Even with some layout chaos, Fernando Gagnino ensures a strong left-to-right flow. Finally, I want to highlight Tyler Smith’s smart lettering placement and color use to enhance the emotion of Conan’s dialogue with King Numedides. The scripting and art pages are simply top tier in this comic creation.
