Throughout his adventures across the mythic Hyborean world,
the barbarian called Conan crosses swords with many a colourful
and dangerous character, none so charming or deadly as the
she-devil from the south - Red Sonja! The stories featured
in this edition feature the fiery reunion of Sonja and Conan,
along with more tales of thrilling adventures and chilling
betrayal...
The
Dweller in the Pool and Other Stories represents
yet another impressive Conan collection. Fans of this
series will not be surprised to hear that, once again, all
the stops have been pulled out and the art work looks fantastic.
How
good is the art work? I hear you cry. Well, put it this way.
It's very rare for the illustrations from the actually story
to be taken from the pages of a comic book and used as the
cover image. That's exactly what has happened here and to
be honest there are more than a handful of quality panels
to choose from. John Buscema is the main artist for this collection
and he tackles every panel with the same attention to detail
as most artists do to cover art.
Add
to this Roy Thomas's finely tuned tales and you have yet another
winner in the chronicles of Conan.
The
fact that the stories are well crafted, and each panel should
be hung in a gallery, makes this a necessary purchase from
those who want to see some of the best work in comics ever
produced.
