Hither Came Conan is the podcast where I&#39;m talking about Conan, the black-haired, sullen-eyed, sword in hand barbarian.In some episodes I compare the original Robert E. Howard Conan stories with their various comic book adaptions.I&#39;m also looking at the new Conan the Barbarian series from Titan each month as a new issue is released.But mostly, I&#39;m going through each of the old Marvel comics, one issue at a time, starting with Conan the Barbarian #1, published in July of 1970.Episodes release as often as I can put one together.

The Phoenix on the Sword

Hither Came Conan is the podcast where I'm talking about Conan, the black-haired, sullen-eyed, sword in hand barbarian.In some episodes I compare the original Robert E. Howard Conan stories with their various comic book adaptions.I'm also looking at the new Conan the Barbarian series from Titan each month as a new issue is released.But mostly, I'm going through each of the old Marvel comics, one issue at a time, starting with Conan the Barbarian #1, published in July of 1970.Episodes release as often as I can put one together.
