Home for the Hunt
Conan The Cimmerian # 14
After Conan left Cimmeria and entered into a successful career as a brutal mercenary, he became the leader of Princess Yasmela's Khorajan army. In the calm after a successful campaign, Conan quickly tires of his pampered life as the princess's protector and lover. While Joe Kubert shows us what trouble a restless barbarian can get into on royal palace grounds, Tim Truman takes us back to the Cimmerian village of Conan's youth-where a surviving Skrae creature claws its way toward Fialla, Conan's mother.
Sorrow of Akivasha
Conan The Cimmerian # 15
Ten thousand years before Conan disturbed the forbidden Temple of Set, princess Akivasha -- daughter to the first great ruler of Stygia -- was transformed into a vampire and cursed to haunt its halls forever. Her pampered years of hedonistic pleasure behind her, the beautiful Akivasha spent centuries with desiccated mummies and skittering monsters, as a deep loneliness grew within her. Now, something has awakened her from tedious ages of boredom. She immediately senses Conan’s power and vitality when he steals into the temple, and she vows to take this Cimmerian warrior as her lover -- or at least have a good time killing him! Spinning out of Robert E. Howard’s Hour of the Dragon novel comes the untold tale of Akivasha, the title character to Howard’s “I Am the Woman Who Never Died” chapter.

"The tale is so classic, so perfect, it plays like a hundred-year old fable; it could have been an episode of Jim Henson's Storyteller." - Comics Bulletin
"A yarn that underscores the fact that there's more to our beloved barbarian than brute force and bloodied metal." - Philip Simon, Editor at Dark Horse Comics
