Plot Summary

Overview
Conan's travels take him to the most dangerous place in Zamoria-the infamous City of Thieves! Bruised, angry, and fed up with both men and mysticism, Conan's ready to start handing out a few lessons in ass-kicking-and he finds plenty of contenders willing to take him on. And that's only the beginning of an adventure ranging from bloody back-alleys to the secrets of the universe-with a few sultry, seductive dangers in-between. Cary Nord continues his stirring run of covers, showing one and all why Conan has been a smash success for Dark Horse, and one of Wizardmagazine's picks for biggest events of 2004.

    The City of Thieves

    And so Conan gets set to become a master thief.

    In this issue Conan arrives in the City of Thieves. Now he has to setup roots, get contacts, fences, and all the rest of the normal things that a wandering Cimmerian must do.

    A good little setup story although nothing much really happens here story wise. It's kind of like if I moved to another city, gotta get a local bank account, set this up, find work, all that mumbo jumbo...only this takes place long ago in an Earth far far away.

    Conan is still his obscenely bitter pissed off self. I wonder when he's gonna crack a smile again (other than when he kills someone).
