Robert E. Howard’s worlds collide in Conan the Barbarian: Battle of the Black Stone

Posted on by

Heroic Signatures and Titan Comics have announced the launch of a new Conan mini-series, Conan the Barbarian: Battle of the Black Stone. This four-issue series is written by critically praised Conan the Barbarian writer, Jim Zub, with art by the talented Jonas Scharf.  

Conan of Cimmeria is haunted by shadows, living nightmares connected to a mysterious eye symbol etched in Black Stone. An unspeakable evil looms over the Hyborian Age and every age connected to it… And it will take more than a lone barbarian to stop its relentless march upon time, space, and sanity. 

Conan the Barbarian: Battle of the Black Stone continues from the Free Comic Book Day special issue, where the strange Black Stone sigil revealed itself across space and time to multiple iconic Robert E. Howard characters, including Conan himself, Solomon Kane, and Dark Agnes. Readers can expect to find out more in The Savage Sword of Conan #4 before the release of Conan the Barbarian: Battle of the Black Stone #1 in September 2024. 

Issue #1 goes on sale September 4th 2024, with sensational covers by Gerado Zaffino, Sedat Oezgen, Stuart Sayger, Samwise Didier, and Tony Fleecs.

There’s nowhere to run once Skinner finds you!

Dark Horse Books presents Skinner, an original horror graphic novel from Micky Neilson and Samwise Didier. Skinner features interior art by Piotr Kowalski with colors by Dennis Calero, letters by Frank Cvetkovic, and cover art by Samwise Didier.

Skinner is the terrifying tale of six internet celebrities who accompany a superstar survivalist on a one-week trip deep into the remote Canadian wilderness. After their plane crashes, the influencers and their guide are stalked by a mountain man of local legend—Skinner—who tracks, murders and skins his victims. When the celebrities mount a desperate counterattack, they discover that there is much more to the Skinner myth than any of them could have imagined—a nightmare creature that can assume any form.

Skinner HC will be available at comic stores May 3, 2023 and in bookstores May 16, 2023. It is now available for pre-order on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and at your local comic shop and bookstore. Skinner will retail for $24.99.
