Conan 8: Černý kolos – Truman Timothy (2021)

This time, Conan decides to try his luck as a warrior and joins mercenary units to earn a living as a foot soldier. However, a force far greater than Fortune drives him into conflict with the most powerful and bizarre army he has ever seen! Princess Jasmela, the interim ruler of the city of Choradji, sees in her dreams the terrible sorcerer Natok, who threatens to unleash hordes of his demons upon Choradji. Therefore, Jasmela turns to the god Mitra, who advises her to entrust the fate of her entire empire to the first man she encounters in the streets of her city – and that man is none other than a drunken and uncouth barbarian! And even if Conan were indeed the only chance for salvation, however unlikely and risky, due to his distrust of the pampered aristocrats, and their contempt for his low social standing, the chance that Conan could cooperate with the nobles to stop Natok in his quest to conquer the world is almost negligible. This volume contains an adaptation of Robert E. Howard's impressive story 'The Black Colossus' created by screenwriter Timothy Truman, artist Tomás Giorelli, and colorist José Villarrubia, and also includes an afterword by Howard's biographer...
