DARK HORSE COMICS FIRST LOOKS

FIRST LOOK: CONAN #23

Conan #23 will arrive in stores on Dec. 21 from Dark Horse Comics. The issue is written by Kurt Busiek, with art by Greg Ruth.

Here's how Dark Horse describes the issue:

"Kurt Busiek teams up with Greg Ruth for another eye-popping tale spotlighting Conan's earliest years. At the age of 10, Conan already finds boyhood too small to contain his manly strength and ambition. But when disease strikes him and his village, he is left weak and unworthy. Determined to regain his self-respect, he journeys alone to the site of one of Cimmeria's bloodiest battles‹but little does Conan know that vile men hide in the shadows of this place, waiting to prey upon those so foolish as to awaken the fallen warriors from their uneasy sleep."

Conan #23 will be 32 pages and will cost $2.99.

None of the decisions is easy, and all of them are fraught with peril!"
