HUNDRED WORD HIT #284 - THE CIMMERIAN HOUR OF THE DRAGON #4
The Cimmerian - Hour of the Dragon #4 by Julien Blondel & Valentin Secher
The action comes thick and fast as Conan confronts Thutothmes of Stygia for the heart of Ahriman The undead monks make their move to seize the heart from Thuthothmes for Xaltotun and end up doing Conan’s dirty work for him.
Xaltotun’s inability to gain the heart means he can’t obtain immortality making him and his allies vulnerable. There’s an epic final battle with Conan ultimately victorious.
Being the final issue of the mini series there’s a sense it’s a little rushed to tie up all the plot threads but overall this has been an entertaining story with some outstanding art.
