Rue Morgue Magazine awarded CONAN THE BARBARIAN as Best Ongoing Comic Series of 2024

“Jim Zub, for the most part, is doing brand new Conan the Barbarian stories and they feel like they’re written by the hand of Robert E. Howard himself. It feels like you’re in Cimmeria, in the Hyborian age written by Robert E. Howard himself and I don’t think there’s a bigger compliment that I could give.” – Thinking Critical (Wes)

“This comic is the gold standard in how to have the very best writer, artists, colorists, letterer, and editor. What do you get with these guys? The best comic in the industry.” Thinking Critical (Drew)
