Written by Jim Zub with art by Scot Eaton and Stephen Segovia, the new four-part event series finds Conan united with fellow Robert E. Howard creations Dark Agnes, Solomon Kane, as well as...Moon Knight!? That's right: Marc Spector emerges from the mighty Marvel Universe to team up with this new collection of warriors as they journey across time to defy the Elder Gods...

James Allison will soon die. But it’s not his first death. He’s lived many lives, in many places—lives he can recall in vivid detail. But when an Elder God called the Wyrm reaches across time to James, an ages-spanning quest begins!

The serpent god set plans to usher in an eternity of darkness, and only the chosen warriors across time and space have a hope of stopping him...and that's where this unlikely group comes together. In an unprecedented comics event, Robert E. Howard’s characters join forces along with Marvel’s Moon Knight, in an all-new saga built on REH and Marvel lore from across the ages!

"Serpent War is a sprawling cross-dimensional epic bringing together legendary characters from the mind of Robert E. Howard with a bit of Marvel mayhem added in for good measure," Zub told ComicBook. "The story I told in SAVAGE SWORD was a straight forward sword and sorcery tale. This one is big, ambitious, and adventurous on a bigger stage. I hope Serpent War engages long-time Conan fans and also brings new readers on board to see what all the excitement is about."
