In the aftermath of "The Frost Giant's Daughter," Conan heads into battle with the men of Asgard, never suspecting the treachery they hold in store for him, nor the horror coming down from Hyperborea. This is Dark Horse's bold new interpretation of Robert E. Howard's greatest creation. "Rendered by Cary Nord, it feels like historians unearthed a vibrant, bloody tapestry. These are, once again, the days of high adventure."Entertainment Weekly

In Conan #7, Conan leads a rebellion against the slave masters of Hyperborea, but can even he face the mightiest sorcerers of the oldest, most corrupt civilization of the ancient world? The answers bring pain, death, and heartbreak, and reveal the truth about Hyperborea and the source of Conan's lifelong hatred for that dark and cheerless land. Conan's February 2004 debut led to an immediate sellout and rave reviews. From then on, Dark Horse has been instrumental in giving fans the world of Robert E. Howard as it was meant to be!

Kakva je bila njegova mladost... njegovo odrastanje? Koji su ga događaji oblikovali? Kakva je to bila zemlja u kojoj se rodio i kakav je narod na njoj počivao? Jedini odgovori se kriju u ovim zapisima, a ta priča će sada prvi put biti ispričana. Konan je rođen. Neka Krom počne da broji mrtve.

Conan unleashes an ancient evil of extraordinary power in this story that sets the stage for the adaptation of one of Robert E. Howard's most-praised Conan stories, "The Tower of the Elephant". Civilization continues to prove unsavory to the Cimmerian barbarian as he navigates through the teeming villainy of the City of Thieves. Determined to profit from this den of peril, Conan attempts to rob a luxuriant temple only to find himself face-to-face with an unscrupulous power bent upon its own escape. Yet, even that may not be as troubling as a woman from Conan's past who has returned to the scene, unexpectedly.

Conan, at the side of Taurus, Prince of Thieves, assaults the dreaded Elephant Tower - but deadly peril awaits at every turn, from hungry lions to giant spiders, and it'll take all his barbarian skill merely to stay alive long enough to make it inside. Yet, once inside, the tower holds secrets far stranger and darker than anything Conan could have prepared for.

2006

Eisner Award-nominated artist Cary Nord and Eisner Award-winning colorist Dave Stewart return to Conan for a new story arc by Kurt Busiek, building up to the adaptation of Robert E. Howard's original Conan yarn "The Hall of the Dead." Fresh from his triumphs in the City of Thieves with a willing, wanton wench at his side, Conan's out for the good lifedrinking, debauchery, and a nighttime looting spree so unrestrained that even the crowned heads of Zamora are displeased. All this attention-getting behavior sets a rogue as wily as Conan himself on his tail, and if that weren't enough, the Cimmerian's ways might just place him on the business end of an entire army. A perfect jumping-on point for new readers, featuring a new stage in Conan's life! Wizard's Book of the Month for March 2005! Cover by Eisner Award winner Tony Harris, white-hot artist of Ex Machina!

But Conan's not running, and he's not hiding-if they want a fight, he'll give it to them. Yet, even if he can take on an entire army and win, there are worse things in Zamora than swords, and worse sorcerers to unleash them. Will they succeed in destroying the daring Cimmerian . . . or will they just make him mad?

Kći ledenog diva i druge priče

2005

„Postoji još jedna zemlja o kojoj mi je deda pričao. Zemlja koju on nikada nije posetio... zemlja s one strane severnog vetra... zemlja zvana Hiperboreja! To je zemlja večitog leta, gde umesto snega perje pada s neba i gde se prelepi tornjevi od bazalta i kule od mermera nadnose nad umilnim zemljištem bogatim dragim kamenjem i plemenitim metalima. Pričao mi je o narodu koji tamo obitava... o toj najstarijoj ljudskoj rasi... svi su visoki, stasiti, besmrtni... hrane se samo voćem i ne poznaju ni bolest ni propadanje, a život provode u miru i promišljanju. Okruženi su muzikom, zvucima lira i frula, a prelepe devojke – čije kose krase venci od lovora – sviraju i plešu u znak obožavanja večitog sunca. Žive u miru sa svim vrstama ptica i zveri, od jage do grifona, a s brda teku med i mleko u potocima. A kad se zamore od svog beskrajnog života, ispunjenog spokojem i lepotom, oni skaču s najviših litica... skaču u zagrljaj vetrova koji okružuju njihovu zemlju kako bi se sjedinili sa svojim bogovima. Ne marim mnogo za muziku i promišljanje, ali takva čudesa... takve čarolije... to želim da vidim svojim očima.”

Kurt Busiek is an American comic book writer notable for his work on the Marvels limited series, his own title Astro City, and his four-year run on Avengers. Busiek did not read comics as a youngster, as his parents disapproved of them. He began to read them regularly around the age of 14, when he picked up a copy of Daredevil #120. This was the first part of a continuity-heavy four-part story arc; Busiek was drawn to the copious history and cross-connections with other series. Throughout high school and college, he and future writer Scott McCloud practiced making comics. During this time, Busiek also had many letters published in comic book letter columns, and originated the theory that the Phoenix was a separate being who had impersonated Jean Grey, and that therefore Grey had not died—a premise which made its way from freelancer to freelancer, and which was eventually used in the comics. During the last semester of his senior year, Busiek submitted some sample scripts to editor Dick Giordano at DC Comics. None of them sold, but they did get him invitations to pitch other material to DC editors, which led to his first professional work, a back-up story in Green Lantern #162 (Mar. 1983). Busiek has worked on a number of different titles in his career, including Arrowsmith, The Avengers, Icon, Iron Man, The Liberty Project, Ninjak, The Power Company, Red Tornado, Shockrockets, Superman: Secret Identity, Thunderbolts, Untold Tales of Spider-Man, JLA, and the award-winning Marvels and the Homage Comics title Kurt Busiek's Astro City. In 1997, Busiek began a stint as writer of Avengers alongside artist George Pérez. Pérez departed from the series in 2000, but Busiek continued as writer for two more years, collaborating with artists Alan Davis, Kieron Dwyer and others. Busiek's tenure culminated with the "Kang Dynasty" storyline. In 2003, Busiek re-teamed with Perez to create the JLA/Avengers limited series. In 2003, Busiek began a new Conan series for Dark Horse Comics, which he wrote for four years. In December 2005 Busiek signed a two-year exclusive contract with DC Comics. During DC's Infinite Crisis event, he teamed with Geoff Johns on a "One Year Later" eight-part story arc (called Up, Up and Away) that encompassed both Superman titles. In addition, he began writing the DC title Aquaman: Sword of Atlantis from issues 40-49. Busiek was the writer of Superman for two years, before followed by James Robinson starting from Superman #677. Busiek wrote a 52-issue weekly DC miniseries called Trinity, starring Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman. Each issue (except for issue #1) featured a 12-page main story by Busiek, with art by Mark Bagley, and a ten-page backup story co-written by Busiek and Fabian Nicieza, with art from various artists, including Tom Derenick, Mike Norton and Scott McDaniel. Busiek's work has won him numerous awards in the comics industry, including the Harvey Award for Best Writer in 1998 and the Eisner Award for Best Writer in 1999. In 1994, with Marvels, he won Best Finite Series/Limited Series Eisner Award and the Best Continuing or Limited Series Harvey Award; as well as the Harvey Award for Best Single Issue or Story (for Marvels #4) in 1995. In 1996, with Astro City, Busiek won both the Eisner and Harvey awards for Best New Series. He won the Best Single Issue/Single Story Eisner three years in a row from 1996–1998, as well as in 2004. Busiek won the Best Continuing Series Eisner Award in 1997–1998, as well as the Best Serialized Story award in 1998. In addition, Astro City was awarded the 1996 Best Single Issue or Story Harvey Award, and the 1998 Harvey Award for Best Continuing or Limited Series. Busiek was given the 1998 and 1999 Comics Buyer's Guide Awards for Favorite Writer, with additional nominations in 1997 and every year from 2000 to 2004. He has also received numerous Squiddy Awards, having been selected as favorite writer four years in a row from 1995 to 1998,
