Greg Ruth is simply awesome! And a nice guy, too.

Just WOW! I'm glad I pick this up...

Thanks for sharing. Could this series be any better?

Thanks for sharing. Could this series be any better?

 

No I don't think it can, not unless that start giving away $20.00 in every comic.

 

Action in every issue and no padding out of stories, this could be a start of something big

[Smokinghawk]

Man, I like Nord's work, but Ruth's style BLOWS ME AWAY. It's supreme.

 

I wish he was doing more than one single issue of Conan. Granted, he's a little slower than other artists, but I'd be willing to wait on stuff painted by him.

Could this series be any better?

 

No.

The Cary Nord & now Ruth art is sensational. Hard to beat writing based on Robt E Howard characters & stories. Sometimes u just don't want to read another hero in spandex battle royal comic.

We're about a month away from the release of the next trade paperback, THE BLOODY CROWN OF CONAN, and I just saw the loose pages last week. They look GREAT! Gary's artwork looks as terrific as ever, and the paintings adapted to black and white brilliantly. Thank Crom for a first-class production department like we have here at Del Rey.

 

Remember the challenge, though. The book hits stores Tuesday, November 23, and all you Howard fans need to lay siege to your local book store. Buy your copies as soon as you can after Nov. 23. If you all hit the stores at once, we have a shot at getting onto the New York Times bestseller list. Won't that freak out the literary types!

 

There are a lot of book stores out there that only sell the bestsellers, so when BLOODY CROWN hits the list, hundreds of new stores will have to carry it. I think it's only actual "brick and mortar" stores--not the online stores--that report to the Times list, but if you've ordered from an online store, don't worry--that'll help, too. The higher we go on the online ratings, the more buzz we'll generate. So it's all good.
