In an announcement by Titan Comics and Heroic Signatures, they explained that the new series of Conan the Barbarian comics, would start coming out by July 2023. They also said that new issues of the FCBD edition of Conan the Barbarian will be available in stores starting May 6, 2023.
About this new Conan the Barbarian comics series that will be released in July, its scriptwriter Jim Zub commented on the comic book’s plot. In it, we will see a young Conan in his village who dreams of leaving his village in search of adventure. The Barbarian will soon discover that his wishes will come true, taking him on a dangerous journey far from home.
Jim Zub added, “My life was shaped by sword & sorcery stories, especially the work of Robert E. Howard. Every chance I’ve had to contribute to the Hyborian Age has been a gift. I have to say that this time, relaunching Conan the Barbarian with Heroic Signatures and Titan Comics with modern masters Rob De La Torre and José Villarrubia collaborating on epic artwork, is the biggest and best present I could imagine. On Free Comic Book Day we’ll give readers and retailers a first look at a young Conan in the legendary Battle at Venarium as he decides to set forth and find the wider world and then, in summer 2023, we’ll fully unleash epic high adventure in an age undreamed of. It’s going to be big, bold and bloody and I can’t wait for all of you to see it”.
