ancestors had roots. But even if he can evade those who are trying
to kill him, Cade can’t escape the family legacy. Before this

who he wants to be-helped along by his mother, his half sister, and
the ghost of Luke Skywalker!

* This newest volume of Star Wars: Legacy collects issues #37-#41!

Conan the Cimmerian #18: Free Companions part 3

Defying Yasmela’s orders, Conan sets himself on a runaway course
that will end his time fighting with the combined forces of
Amalric’s mercenaries, the Khorajan army, and Julion of Koth’s
rebel soldiers. Our newest issue marks a turning point in Conan’s
career as a sword for hire, when he and his comrades find
themselves without work or direction. An old battle wound threatens
the life of Amalric, the leader of the restless mercenaries, and
the rekindled affair between Princess Yasmela and Prince Julion
continues to enrage Conan — who must take action in order to save
face.

This original tale explores events alluded to in Robert E. Howard’s
Conan tales, taking place right after Dark Horse’s Black Colossus story arc and building to the birth of Conan’s “Free Companions”!
