In this rare and candid special episode of Hither Came Conan, Steeven steps away from the blood-soaked pages of the Hyborian Age to confront a beast of his own making: the challenges of juggling multiple creative projects. With the launch of his Comic Book Show just around the corner, the barbarian of podcasting wrestles with deadlines, legal scares, and the pressure of delivering top-notch content for his loyal listeners.

Listen as Steeven lays bare his struggles, his plans for the future of Hither Came Conan, and the reasons behind the current hiatus. He shares a glimpse into his neurodivergent process, reveals the joys and frustrations of podcasting, and assures fans that Conan’s adventures will resume—better than ever.

This is a behind-the-scenes look at the life of a podcaster who refuses to settle for anything less than epic storytelling. It’s raw, real, and as entertaining as the Cimmerian himself.

Grab your maps of Hyboria and buckle up—because even in a pause, Steeven brings the thunder!

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!

Prepare yourself for a no-holds-barred deep dive into the January 1973 Marvel Comics masterpiece, Conan the Barbarian #25: The Mirrors of Kharam-Akkad! This issue marks a turning point in Conan lore, as the legendary John Buscema takes up the pencil for the first time, kicking off a breathtaking 14-year artistic reign.

Steeven guides you through the swirling chaos of Hyborian politics, ancient wizardry, and visceral combat as Conan faces the mad High Priest Kharam-Akkad and a demon from a mystical mirror. Along the way, we uncover the chilling origins of these haunted mirrors, which stretch back to King Kull himself in the fabled House of a Thousand Mirrors. It’s a saga of betrayal, prophecy, and blood-soaked vengeance that explodes from every panel!

Plus, we celebrate the unsung hero of this issue, Captain Chumbala Bey, and dissect every jaw-dropping moment, from Conan’s adrenaline-fueled plank-smashing escape to the unforgettable finale where the barbarian defies destiny with a sword stroke.

Whether you’re a seasoned Conan fanatic or a Hyborian novice, this episode of Hither Came Conan promises thrills, chills, and a hearty dose of barbarian badassery. Don't miss it—this one’s for the ages!

Conan the Barbarian #25: The Mirrors of Kharam-Akkad by Roy Thomas, Barry Windsor Smith, John Buscema, Sal Buscema, John Severin, Marie Severin, and Artie Simek was published by Marvel Comics in January, 1973.

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!

This is the episode in which I'm talking about Uncanny Valley #1 by Tony Fleecs, Dave Wachter, and Pat Brosseau.

Oliver is a seemingly typical 12 year old boy… except for a mysterious family history that seems to start and end with his mother. Oh, and his unexplainable powers, that is.

He can do things other boys can’t, to the point of landing himself in some trouble. Baffled by the surreal, cartoonish nature of his abilities, and followed by a murder of peculiar crows, Oliver begins to pull the thread on the secrets his family has kept from him for so long…
