It is the Disney Princess version! They're just testing the waters and looking to attract girls to the Hyborean world. Maybe we'll get a Bêlit Disney Channel cartoon?

It's a nice picture with an interesting perspective and good choice of colors... but it's totally wrong for Belit (or anything Conan), unfortunately.

Variant cover by Afu Chan: Ummmmm.............no. Funny thing is that I thought the same thing when I first looked at the pic ( before reading your post ).

From the interview with the author this sounds like it will be garbage; is anyone going to risk it out of curiosity and throw this thing onto their pull list?

I think this title will not appeal to the majority of REH/Conan fans. On the plus side I think the art of Kate Niemczyk will be worth checking out. I'll probably pick this up.

I'll give the first issue a try, but will drop it immediately if it's as bad as I think it will be. I may even read a few pages first and if it's bad, I won't buy it.

From the solicitation of this issue: In an all-new story from rising star Tini Howard (Marvel Knights 20th, Captain America Annual #1) and artist Kate Niemczyk (Mockingbird, Invincible Iron Man), learn how the most formidable pirate queen came to be, as a teenage Bêlit stows away on the ship of the Dread Admiral Atrahasis…her adventures leading her down a dangerous and deadly road, one that will change her life and the lives of all who roam the seas of the Hyborian Age!I just realised that Atrahasis is Bêlit's father in the original Roy Thomas run (The Ballad of Bêlit, CtB 59).

We’ve just delivered Michael A. Stackpole’s new Conan novella, “Bone Whispers” to our friends at Marvel Comics which will be part of the soon to be released “Age of Conan: Bêlit” comic book.

I've read a fair few of Stackpole's Battletech novels and a couple of Star Wars. I have no idea if he can write Conan/S&S. I guess we'll see.

Variant Cover by REBEKAH ISAACS: Challenge accepted: Never mind the Black Coast, she's queen of the world! Aren't they taking the ivory skin description a little too far...wait, what am I thinking? That would mean they've actually read the story! Her fairy godmother Ishtar speaks thru the bow like Hera did in Jason and the Argonauts. This is right before their big singing number, "I'm gonna be queen someday!"
