They may appear to impatient, but there not that forward. Give it some time and well have a Rob Liefeld pastiche to end all Conan pastiches! As a child of the 90's that would be phenomenal! I'd love to see Rob do a Conan project. Savage Avengers would be a good place for Rob to really cut lose. But I'd also like to see him do proper sword and sorcery. I thought Rob's Prophet was like a combination of Conan, Wolverine, and the biblical heroes of old. I guess one mans nightmare is another's dream. I only know about Rob through his infamous career. Also googled some of his.....rather...deformed looking art.

Thanks Jason. Looks good. Gerry Duggan's gotta lay off all this Crom stuff. I think Conan's intelligent enough to know that the symbiote is not Crom.

The art looks good at times, but characters are flying, levitating, kicking, chopping, shooting, casting spells from allover the place. Once a character is slapped or blasted to one side (usually off panel) they seem to reappear from nowhere like the previous action sequence did not happen, it's all a little too confusing and poorly constructed by both Duggan and Deodato. Duggan and Garney had a similar problem with their SSOC run. It could have something to do with Gerry Duggan's writing but I expect a little bit more by the 4th issue. Mike Deodato has been around for a while now, he should know how to establish the scene and how the characters move within that space - there's absolutely nothing there. Apart from that, it's god fun

Review from Comicbook.com: SAVAGE AVENGERS #4 There’s a rushed nature to both the plotting and many of the pages found in Savage Avengers #4. Building to a climax with a new setting and this idosyncratic collection of characters resembles a suddenness only reflected by the literal teleportation. Character dynamics and the (re)appearance of several individuals are taken for granted, producing multiple moments of confusion and few stakes that aren’t grafted from outstanding elements in other stories or series. The back half of the issue features more muddied inks and thicker lines that fail to illuminate any proceedings. A few panels and juxtapositions bring any momentum this adventure possesses to a halt as they fail to connect points A and B, or lack enough definition to provide either clarity or visceral thrills. It’s a slapdash rush to the big finale, one that leaves no room for excitement or anticipation. -- Chase Magnett

Definitely good fun, and that's how I read it

This was the weakest of the 4 issues by far. I think that shit with Punisher's family and the giant Venom didn't work too well. That and them being outside the Savage Land just seems awkward.
I like Conan's symbiotic sword, though, stylistically anyway. The Dragon venom sounds like Deadpool, when did that start?
