Conan #18
an issue of Conan by Dark Horse
Issue description
Bruce Timm, the innovator whose work has changed the face of American animation as
well as American comics, and John Severin, the legendary artist of EC’s Two-Fisted
Tales, Image’s Desperados, and Vertigo’s Caper, team up to give fan-favorite Cary Nord
a month off. Busiek and Timm join forces on a brief, sadistic little adventure involving a
girl, a wizard, a monster, and Conan’s very morbid sense of humor. Busiek teams with
sometimes writing partner Fabian Nicieza (Avengers/Thunderbolts) and the great John
Severin to pick up a loose end from Conan #3, as Conan’s destiny is misinterpreted by a
series of luckless warriors and shameless opportunists, leading to nothing but misery.
