SSOC v. 12 is up at Dark Horse...

http://www.darkhorse...n-Volume-12-TPB

“I side with myself.” The fierce reputation of the barbarian warrior Conan grows throughout the lands of Hyboria, with kings and conquerors alike willing to pay a fortune for the fearsome Cimmerian’s broadsword. But when warring factions are both willing to secure Conan’s services, they discover that they can buy a mercenary’s blade but never his allegiance. Collects Marvel’s The Savage Sword of Conan the Barbarian #121-#130.

Beautiful cover. Wish the stories were good, though, which has not been the case in the last volumes.

I like the cover too, even if (or possibly because) Conan's sword looks like a baby dragon perched on his shoulder. "Bwawk, look out, Conan!"

Baby dragon? Wow! Never thought about that, but it is true. Laughs.

Quick question for anybody who got this. I have collected every vol so far. Last vol (11) was my least favourite ever. I know vol 13 will have some good stuff. So do i skip this one and wait for 13 in April?

I don't mind bad stories as long as there is action and importantly, good artwork (Alfred Alcala inking his own work is my favourite.)

Anybody got this vol and can give me an opinion on it?
Cheers.
