Titan Comics has announced the release of a new Conan the Barbarian ongoing series in July 2023. In June, the publisher announced a new partnership with Heroic Signatures, taking over the Conan license from Marvel Comics. Marvel previously held the rights to publish Conan comics from the '70s to the '90s, then from 2018 to 2022. Dark Horse Comics picked up the license in the early aughts and published Conan comics from 2003-2018.
Now, it's Titan's turn - and the publisher has big plans.
The new Conan the Barbarian ongoing will be written by Jim Zub, drawn by Roberto De La Torre, and colored by José Villarrubia. Titan has released a black-and-white sketch of the titular character seen here, but it has not released any plot details as of the time of writing.
A new Conan series will be part of Titan's 10th-anniversary celebration, and in June the publisher also teased limited series featuring other heroes from Conan creator Robert E. Howard's world. The only one who definitely won't appear in these comics is Red Sonja, who's currently licensed to Dynamite.
In 2021, Titan announced its book division would public new Conan novels, short stories, and illustrated art books starting this year for the character's 90th anniversary. In December, it will release S.M. Sterling's novel Conan - Blood of the Serpent: The All-New Chronicles of the World's Greatest Barbarian Hero.
And in addition to the new ongoing debuting in July 2023, in fall 2023, Titan will continue Marvel's Conan omnibus line with Savage Sword of Conan Volume 9.
