I really don't have a tremendous amount to to say about this issue other then it's still good. I really felt for a while that this series had gone down hill but since the new creative team was locked down it's been really fun to read. Both artists are perfect for these kinds of stories and Truman really has a good handle on the dialogue, the characters, and the world. Any fan of Howard and/or sword and sorcery tales should be reading this.

Is this in the same continuity of the Busiek/Nord run?

I loved that run. I've been hesitant to jump on this one. Nord and Busiek defined Conan for me.

Yes it follows that, they just renamed it after issue 50

Thumbs up.  I've been enjoying the hell out of this series.
