DARK HORSE COMICS FIRST LOOKS
FIRST LOOK: CONAN THE CIMMERIAN #4
Conan the Cimmerian #4 will arrive in stores on Oct. 15 from Dark Horse Comics. The issue is written by Timothy Truman, with art by Tomas Giorello and a cover by Frank Cho.
Here's how Dark Horse describes the issue:
"Conan finds himself at odds with Horsa-an Aesir leader last seen in 'The Frost Giant's Daughter' -- when he tries to protect his former Cimmerian lover, Caollan, from Horsa's strange war party. Conan faces off against some strong Aesir soldiers, as well as the colorful-yet-foolhardy berserker Thorgeir and the powerful witch Olva. Being caught in the middle of a blood feud between Cimmerian and Aesir chiefs is bad enough, but things get much worse when Olva summons the demonic Skrae to hunt down Conan and his secretive ward. Richard Corben's flashback sequences -- featuring Conan's grandfather, Connacht -- take a surprising turn when they dovetail into the present for an exciting cliffhanger!"
Conan the Cimmerian #4 will be 32 pages and will cost $2.99.

FIRST LOOK: STAR WARS: LEGACY #29
Star Wars: Legacy #29 will arrive in stores on Oct. 29 from Dark Horse Comics. The issue is written by John Ostrander, with art by Jan Duursema.
Here's how Dark Horse describes the issue:
"'Vector,' part 10. With his bounty-hunter pals and a team of Imperial Knights, Cade Skywalker plans to assassinate the Sith Emperor Darth Krayt. The first step in their scheme requires a risky attack on a remote Imperial outpost in hopes of drawing Krayt away from Coruscant.
"But even if that works, members of the team are divided in their feelings about their 'secret weapon' -- Celeste Morne, an ancient Jedi Knight of the Old Republic who is in possession of -- and possibly possessed by -- the powerful Muur Talisman.
"As we plunge into the final chapters of the yearlong 'Vector' crossover, the power of the Talisman threatens to shake the galaxy to its foundations!"
Star Wars: Legacy #29 will be 32 pages and will cost $2.99.
