Using his strange abilities to shapeshift into the guise of Athyr-Bast, Zula detailed his plan to infiltrate the tower of the grand sorcerer Thoth-Amon, so he could waylay their dark plans for power. Once Conan and Zula gained entry to Thoth-Amon's inner sanctum, the snake-shrouded sorcerer unveiled his cult's many machinations - among them, mention of Set's brood gathered beneath the city streets. Sensing 'Athyr-Bast' has already been blessed by Set. Thoth-Amon's jealous rage nearly led to bloodshed, but ultimately Zula and Conan were permitted to leave, unhurt and, as yet, unsuspected. Racing across the city, Zula and Conan returned to Athyr-Bast's chambers only to find the sorceress had escaped as war horns rang out across the city, alerting all to their presence...]]></description><link>https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C18682382</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C18682382</guid><category><![CDATA[GRAPHIC_NOVEL_DOWNLOAD]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Zub, Jim]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/18682382981</comments><format>GRAPHIC_NOVEL_DOWNLOAD</format><subtitle>Issue #24</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781787748187/MC.GIF&amp;client=tlcovega&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Conan the Barbarian Vol. 5: Twisting Loyalties]]></title><description><![CDATA[Two legendary artists, two epic stories... 
 
The triumphant new era of Conan continues in this tale of brutal heroic adventure from acclaimed creators Jim Zub (Avengers, Dungeon & Dragons), Danica Brine, and Doug Braithwaite (Punisher, Justice). 
 
Conan the Barbarian and Bêlit, Pirate Queen of the Black Coast, are enjoying a life of decadence and debauchery, but a flagrant flash of wealth brings unwelcome attention from thieves with a taste for danger and agents from Stygia on a dark mission for their serpent god! 
 
Later, in the days following Bêlit's tragic demise, Conan travels through jungles of the southern kingdoms, but there's no time for grief - a deadly hunter stalks the Cimmerian, bent on bloody vengeance. Who is this strange foe, and what do they know about the ancient power rising in Stygia?]]></description><link>https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C18277662</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C18277662</guid><category><![CDATA[GRAPHIC_NOVEL_DOWNLOAD]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Zub, Jim]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/18277662981</comments><format>GRAPHIC_NOVEL_DOWNLOAD</format><subtitle>Issues #17-20</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781787747876/MC.GIF&amp;client=tlcovega&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Conan the Barbarian: Scourge of the Serpent]]></title><description><![CDATA[Fresh from mythic adventures in the frozen North, young Conan of Cimmeria's wanderlust takes him south to the Nemedian principality of Numalia. A barbarian with no coin, no prospects, and an untamed thirst for wine and women, he embarks upon the first trade in his storied career: that of a thief. 
 
But when he finds only empty coffers in the home of his intended mark, Aztrias Petanius, Conan's threats drive the terrified nobleman to reveal a richer prize - the temple of Kallian Publico. If Conan were to plunder there, perhaps he and Aztrias could split the spoils. A simple enough scheme, and one the Cimmerian readily accepts. 
 
Yet on this night, Conan's foray into petty crime will have consequences that ripple across the ages...]]></description><link>https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C18705133</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C18705133</guid><category><![CDATA[GRAPHIC_NOVEL_DOWNLOAD]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Zub, Jim]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/18705133981</comments><format>GRAPHIC_NOVEL_DOWNLOAD</format><subtitle>Issue #1</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781806180684/MC.GIF&amp;client=tlcovega&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Conan: The Barbarian]]></title><description><![CDATA[Captured and taken to the city of Kheshatta, Conan of Cimmeria was forced to fight for survival in a gladiatorial arena before the city's cruel lords, including the infamous Thoth-Amon. After slaying the formidable Krum-Va the Carver, Conan - posing as Amra of Akbatana - earned his place as champion for the enchantress Athyr-Bast. For weeks, 'Amra' carved a bloody path through the arena, solidifying his name and elevating Athyr-Bast's status among the Stygian elite. Later, Conan was visited by the distraught Livia whom he vowed to set free - only to be forced the next day to slay his allies, the Bamulas. That night, when Athyr-Bast summoned Conan to her bedchambers, the Cimmerian seized the moment to strike at his captor, only to be overwhelmed by the woman's mind magic. As Conan raged against Athyr-Bast's power, a hooded figure intervened and knocked the sorceress unconscious, revealed to be Zula, shapeshifter of the Black Kingdoms...]]></description><link>https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C18682391</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C18682391</guid><category><![CDATA[GRAPHIC_NOVEL_DOWNLOAD]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Zub, Jim]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/18682391981</comments><format>GRAPHIC_NOVEL_DOWNLOAD</format><subtitle>Issue #23</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781787748170/MC.GIF&amp;client=tlcovega&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Conan the Barbarian: Battle of the Black Stone]]></title><description><![CDATA[The legendary roster of characters created by Robert E.

Having endured the extreme passions and fathomless loss of his pirate queen Bêlit, Conan continued roving the land under the infamous alias Amra the Lion. Coming to the southern Black Kingdoms, the Cimmerian lent his steel-set strength in a tribal war and earned the loyalty of the Bamula tribe. Now, after rescuing Livia, a princess of Ophir, from certain death in a Vale of Lost Women, Conan and his Bamulas ride northward to return Livia to her people. But here, on the border between Kush and Stygia, the Cimmerian and his allies may soon find that no good deed goes unpunished...]]></description><link>https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C18424082</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C18424082</guid><category><![CDATA[GRAPHIC_NOVEL_DOWNLOAD]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Zub, Jim]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/18424082981</comments><format>GRAPHIC_NOVEL_DOWNLOAD</format><subtitle>Issue #21</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781787748156/MC.GIF&amp;client=tlcovega&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item></channel></rss>
