Conan: Iron Shadows in the Moon and Other Stories by Timothy Truman, Tomas Giorello, Darick Robertson and Jose Villarrubia, is another excellent Conan graphic novel from Dark Horse Books. This is volume 10 of the Dark Horse series and I have enjoyed all ten of them thus far. I have been a fan of Robert E. Howard’s big fella since I was a teenager, when I read many of his Conan stories. I must say that the interpretation of Howard’s tales, written by Truman and beautifully illustrated Giorello and Villarrubia, are marvelous. In fact, I believe that these Dark Horse graphic novels enhance the reader’s experience of the brutal nature of Conan as he pillages through his savage environments and battles dangerous beasts and villainous armies. The artwork in these volumes adds a dimension of experience that cannot be attained through the written word alone. This particular adventure joins the barbarian after he is the sole survivor of a horrendous battle, and he is on the run. Conan encounters a beautiful woman (Olivia), whom he rescues from a cruel shah, and allows her to escape with him to an island in the Vilayet Sea. Conan prevails over vicious assaults by ruthless pirates and supernatural monsters to protect her in an action-packed and suspense-driven tale. This story reveals Conan as slightly more sympathetic and vulnerable warrior, but still shows plenty of his horrific violent nature. In addition, Truman used Olivia as a narrator for this story, which is Robert E.Howard rarely used, and never for a Conan story. However, I thought it worked very well in this story. This book also contains two bonus stories, i.e., Conan and the Mad King of Gaul and Conan: the Weight of the Crown, both written by Darick Robertson. These very enjoyable bonus stories depict a young, savage Conan, who had a lot to learn. I thought this volume was excellent and a must read for all Conan fans. I fact, Conan fans should read all the Dark Horse Conan graphic novels. ( ) ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
