The epic conclusion is here! In this pulse-pounding episode, Steeven dives into Conan the Barbarian #4, the thrilling finale of Bound in Black Stone, the first arc from Titan Comics’ new Conan series.

Conan, battered but unyielding, faces eldritch horrors beneath the cursed Blackstone Tower. As inky black tentacles claw at him from an abyss of evil, the Cimmerian must wield an ancient blade and channel the spirit of Brule the Spear-Slayer to destroy a power older than time itself. But even as the tower crumbles and Conan fights his way through reptilian cultists, the malevolent force of the Black Stone refuses to die quietly.

Steeven takes you on a visceral journey through this instant classic, breaking down stunning art, masterful storytelling, and the bone-rattling action that solidifies this tale alongside legends like The Tower of the Elephant and Red Nails. Along the way, he shares insights into the Marvel Method behind this arc, its ties to Conan’s Pictish past, and the ominous cliffhanger that will haunt your dreams.

Will Conan’s victory endure, or has a darker force been unleashed? Tune in to find out, and prepare yourself for a tale so gripping, it will echo through the Hyborian Age!

Conan the Barbarian #4: Bound in Black Stone Part IV - Vengeance of the Lost by Jim Zub, Rob De La Torre, Dean White, Richard Starkings, and Matt. Murray was published by Titan Comics on October 25, 2023.
