  • In this pulse-pounding episode of Hither Came Conan, Steeven takes us deep into the rain-soaked jungles of Zembabwei to explore the thrilling tale from Conan the Barbarian #28 (Marvel, 1973), Moon of Zembabwei! After surviving the sweltering desert, Conan’s quest for water leads him into a deadly encounter with a two-legged, venomous serpent. But this is only the beginning of a harrowing journey through betrayal, dark rituals, and primal revenge.

    When Conan is saved from the bog by the enigmatic Stygian, Thutmekri, their uneasy truce sets the stage for a series of treacherous twists. From venom-coated daggers to sinister witch dancers, and a showdown with a massive golden ape, Conan battles through one peril after another with his signature mix of brute strength, sharp wit, and relentless determination.

    This story delivers all the action, suspense, and larger-than-life heroics that fans have come to love about the Cimmerian. Tune in as Steeven breaks down every savage moment, from the snake’s head rolling to the jungle floor to the epic fight against Zembabwei’s fearsome guardians. If you love Conan tales filled with deadly creatures, dark magic, and barbarian justice, this episode is not to be missed!

    Conan the Barbarian #28: "Moon of Zembabwei" was written by Roy Thomas, with Pencils by John Buscema, inks by Ernie Chan, the letters were by John Costanza and Glynis Wein was the colorist.

    This issue was published by Marvel Comics in April of 1973.

  • One year ago today, on February 17, 2023, I launched Hither Came Conan with an episode in which I had a look at The Frost Giant's Daughter by Robert E. Howard, as well as the various comic book adaptations from Marvel Comics, Dark Horse, and Ablaze.

    To celebrate our first year talking about the iconic black-haired, sullen-eyed, sword-in-hand barbarian, I've taken that first episode and gave it a bit of a remix.

    Listen to it now for the first time.... again!
