Conan the Barbarian #2 (Marvel: 1970) | Hither Came Conan

Step into the frosty wilds of the Aesgardian wilderness, where Conan the Cimmerian faces a gauntlet of ferocious trials that redefine peril! In this episode of Hither Came Conan, host Steeven dives deep into Marvel Comics' Conan the Barbarian #2 (1970)—a thunderous tale brimming with monstrous yeti battles, treacherous seductions, and brutal subterranean kingdoms.

Join us as Conan topples into the icy clutches of Brutheim's Beastmen, where human slaves tremble under a crown of tusks and despair reigns supreme. With betrayal at every corner and the spark of rebellion glimmering in the dark, can our barbarian hero outwit a city ruled by bloodthirsty savages? Featuring Barry Windsor-Smith’s stunning art and Roy Thomas’ gripping script, this epic saga dares to capture the untamable fire of Conan himself.

Fueled by Steeven's wit, passion, and relentless eye for detail (alongside a few creative mispronunciations), this episode celebrates the larger-than-life heroics of a comic that defied expectations. Beastmen, betrayals, and battering rams—Conan brings it all in this episode of high adventure!

Enjoy!
