This week, Hither Came Conan takes a bold leap back in time as host Steeven dusts off a long-lost gem from over five years ago! In this nostalgic and raw retrospective, we revisit Steeven’s earliest exploration of the Conan mythos with Dark Horse Comics’ Conan Vol. 1: The Frost Giant’s Daughter and Other Stories.

Join us as Steeven, recording in the echoing chambers of a car with just a phone and a lot of passion, dives into the stunningly illustrated, vividly colored world crafted by Kurt Busiek, Cary Nord, and Dave Stewart. From towering frost giants and mind-bending Hyperborean sorcery to Conan’s unrelenting thirst for freedom and vengeance, this episode revisits a young barbarian’s formative adventures in all their bloody, frostbitten glory.

Hear Steeven’s off-the-cuff impressions, wild theories (including a surprising connection to G.I. Joe), and the humorously unfiltered musings of a budding podcaster discovering Conan for the first time. Whether you’re a die-hard fan of the Hyborian Age or new to the savage saga, this unique look at Conan’s adventures offers fresh perspectives and a hearty dose of unpolished charm.

Don’t miss this one-of-a-kind trip down memory lane as we close out Season Six with a tale of nostalgia, discovery, and raw barbarian spirit!

Enjoy!
