Why all the hate for Brian Wood's Conan? I agree it could have used more Becky Cloonan but other than that it's not bad.

>hate
Must be /co/ memesters who don't read Conan, people on Sword & Sorcery threads I've been agreed It's pretty good

At least she did a short story in the last Batman Black and White and did that one issue of Batman...
>>82590058
>neither will Conner.
Are women's wrists faulty or something?
Is it because they don't fap?Somebody go check on Lupaccutie's hand, before it's too late
>>82589932
I've heard a lot of complains that it "pussyfied" Conan and shit. I thought it was a very good look at a more vulnerable side of him, and Wood did a good job fleshing out Belit.
>>82592307
It definitely wasn't my favorite, but I still enjoyed it well enough
>>82590058
Where did you hear this? Last I heard she just felt super burnt out on drawing comics and wants to focus on writing and the only art being stuff for her own comics like the Chance or Providence stuff.
>>82592307
Some people want Conan to be a rock. I remember listening to Brandon Graham talk superheros and how Marvel and DC should handle them as shells for writers to do what the fuck ever with them so we end up with more All Star Supermans and Batman Year 100 and Dark Knight Returns only to fuck his argument up by saying Conan should always be a stoic rock because that's how he likes Conan and then Paul Pope called him out on it.
>>82590161
Lupa already cited the scheduling for why she had to drop Starfire. It sucks.
>>82593349
Yeah it's not official or anything. I just only ever see her solicited on covers these days.
>>82593438
>Brandon Graham saying dumb shit
What else is new?
Dark Horse has done a great job in giving showing us several faces of Conan, from stoic badass King Conan to confused, in love with Belit Conan.
>>82595201
Yes, and I'm fine with this. I'm entirely willing to stop buying one Conan and switch to another book if I don't like the current run. Or find old issues, they're not expensive. Or dig up a Conan pastiche novel if I need my fix - I have a Robert Jordan one around here somewhere...
>>82588611
Any more images if this art or interior pages?
>>82596429
I can dump the whole first issue, sure.
>>82597161
The Prince of Per-- I mean, Cimmeria!
More?

>>82597451
>Yes
>>82597502
Alright then, let's wrap up this arc.
This comic is giving me a boner.
>>82597594
I can see why
These interiors suck. You'd think they'd get someone with more dynamic posing and layout to do an action-oriented comic like this. It looks very amateur webcomicky.
>>82597745
>dissing Cloonan
Oh shit, you've gone and done it
>>82597774
I've never heard of him. I guess he'd be adequate on another title but this indy style doesn't suit this story.
I liked it and Belit is great but I can understand why some people don't like it. For one thing there was like zero sorcery in the whole story
>>82597745
Nigga please.
>>82597821
Her. Becky Cloonan is a lady. Also check this shit out senpai
>>82557272
>>82597825
Howard's prose included brains when mentioning gore a lot. It made everything so much more visceral.
>>82597821
Cloonans art is great for this kinda thing, I love the mystic looking stuff she does for bands.
I'm fine with the art but I would prefer if Conan had harsher features, something befitting of a barbarian from the North.
>>82597912
To be fair if I remember the timeline correctly he's only in his mid to late teens during this story.
>>82597912
He's supposed to be young
>>82597912
It was my understanding that he was pretty young here.
>>82597929
>>82597943
>>82597959
Fair enough
>tfw you know that conan just up and forgets about Belit in the next series
I thought the entire arc dragged on for way, way too long
I did enjoy the art tho.
The End.
I can dig it, is there more to read so I can look in to it on my own time?

Most of the complaints that I've heard are usually about continuity (something Wood has always been really bad about). Particularly how this arc seems to contradict plot points in earlier and later Conan stories, when the Darkhorse books up to this point had been very good about keeping the continuity straight.
Also some people didn't like the art, but everyone has their own tastes. Personally I enjoyed it, but I wouldn't want to see every Conan story drawn this way.
>>82598482
Such is the life of Conan.
>>82598497
At least he truly loved her, I like reading King Conan reminisce about her.
>>82597267
>Dat face

>Those lips
>>82598907

>>82588611
I am pretty sure Belit wasn't meant to look like a vampire and they were being over-literal with the descriptions
Her look on the cover is best
