About this item
Alone, on the brink of death, and with nothing but his sword, Conan the Cimmerian stumbles into a camp of Kozaki raiders. With a band of determined Turanian hunters at his heels, the Kozaki chief hesitantly offers the barbarian refuge. As Conan's grievous wounds heal, he gains acceptance into the clan and becomes a mentor to one of the chief's two sons . . . only to discover that mortal danger is closer than ever. Penned by superstar writer Cullen Bunn (Deadpool, The Sixth Gun, Harrow County) and with art by Sergio Dvila (Red Sonja) , this volume collects issues #1-#6 of the pulse-pounding series, Conan the Slayer!
