Title:
Conan The Barbarian
Synopsis:
Writer: James C. Owsley
Artists: Val Semeiks and Geof Isherwood
In the temple of Mitra where Kaleb killed the Devourer of Souls, the villagers are looting it. One gets greedy and grabs the Devourer’s sword. A bolt of lightning kills the guy and resurrects the Devourer. Meanwhile the rebel army Conan commands has its own issues. Kobe has to go and round up horses and gets ambushed and captured by bandits. The bandits are led by Bahkt who has a grudge against Conan. He hopes that Kobe will be bait. At the court of the emperor of Koth, the emperor hires Red Sonja to convince Conan to abandon this revolt or kill him. Solaise plays with the cat Sedrick and causes several flashes of light. One blinds Conan long enough for Bahkt to escape his battle.
This is a fairly meandering story. It sets up a new opponent for Conan in the crazy Bahkt. We see that Kobe is an arrogant ass that needs to get rescued by Shapur. Solaise has serious power with her newfound cat and the Devourer is still alive and wants that power. Oh, and Red Sonja is entering the story. Not a bad move as I believe her series was cancelled at this time, but she is still a very popular character. Another strange story but one that does keep the reader’s interest.
