Book Reviews of Conan and the Midnight God (Conan (Graphic Novels))
Book Review: What's with these Eldritch gods looking alike?
Summary: 2 Stars
OK. I read this vol of King Conan by Joseph Dysart immediately after the Hand of Nergal volume of Conan by Tim Truman and guess what? The Nergal god is exactly like the Midnight God, all tentacles and stuff. As usual, in the fight scenes, Conan gets wrapped up in these tentacles, lops them off mercilessly until the triffid literally is chopped down. So is this the same story rehashed with a different title?
The problem with the earlier Thomas/Buscema/Matteis runs were that now and then, Conan would meet one of these disproportionate Leviathian demi gods and somehow survives the experience. The mere drawing in of one of these gigantic beings into a comic book panel reduces them to mortal proportions and makes for a predictable episode. The same thing is happening in this volume.
The artwork does not dazzle. in fact, the first few pages are just awful. No way is this slugfest a 5 star.
Summary of Conan and the Midnight God (Conan (Graphic Novels))
Conan has won the throne of Aquilonia and the hand of the beautiful Zenobia. With a kingdom to rule and an heir on the way, will the Cimmerian finally put up his sword for good? Don't bet on it. When his bride and country are attacked by a sinister Stygian sorcerer, Conan strikes back at Stygia with all his might - and the might of Aquilonia - in a move that threatens to throw all Hyboria into chaos! Written by Joshua Dysart (Swamp Thing, Violent Messiahs) and drawn by upcoming Kull artist Will Conrad (Serenity, Buffy the Vampire Slayer), Conan and the Midnight God is an exciting new chapter in the adventures of the barbarian king.General Books
