The city of Makkalet burns as the Hyborian Age’s most explosive war reaches its thunderous finale in Conan the Barbarian #26: The Hour of the Griffin! In this episode, Steeven takes you deep into the chaos of battle, where Conan’s blade cuts through deceit, despair, and armies of foes.
As Turanian forces storm the city, Conan finds himself entangled in a labyrinth of betrayal and bloodshed. With the Living Tarim revealed to be a grotesque mockery of divinity, and enemies pressing on all sides, the Cimmerian fights his way through secret tunnels, fiery confrontations, and even a saber-toothed mole (yes, really). Will Conan escape the ruins of Makkalet, or will the weight of an entire war drag him into oblivion?
Steeven brings his signature blend of humor, lore, and passionate critique to this epic issue, exploring everything from John Buscema’s evolving art style to the absurdity of Trojan-horse-esque plots and mystical mirrors. It’s a conclusion packed with action, intrigue, and one of the most jaw-dropping reveals in Conan’s adventures so far.
Tune in for the thrilling wrap-up of the Hyrkanian Holy War and discover why Hither Came Conan is your ultimate destination for all things barbaric!
Conan the Barbarian #26: The Hour of the Griffin by Roy Thomas, John Buscema, Ernie Chan, John Costanza, and Glynis Wein was published by Marvel Comics in February, 1973.
Enjoy!
