Thanks for the preview Salant.
Looks like both CtB 8 and SSoC 1 will be available this week in the UK.

I love the characterisation of Conan in this story arc, but, not too enamoured with the ending.

Not the 1st time in comics that kind of seeming permanent jeopardy was used for drama. But it doesn't work well as a cliff-hanger, since we all know it won't & shouldn't stick.
The question now is can Zub come up with a creative enough solution to make it more than shock value? I do think, after all these months, Jim's earned a long length of rope of consideration though.

Very entertaining issue. Not sure were it's going with that ending. I think, Conan will be going back to the Age of Kull/Brule in the next story arc, so. I guess it could work.

Zub seems to like the idea of Conan being possessed by magic. He tried to do it in the earlier Marvel run but it didn't work out well.
But I think here works due to the Howardian connections. Looking forward to how it wraps up in the next arc.
