Report: Marvel Comics Could Be Losing the Rights to a Major Character

Marvel Comics hasn’t officially confirmed losing the license/rights to the character, but if true, it’s likely to have an impact on future Conan the Barbarian starring titles. The King Conan miniseries from Jason Aaron and Mahmud Asrar, (which was mired in controversy already) is still set to release two issues later this year, while Conan is set to star in the Savage Avengers from David Prepose and Carlos Magno. So will Marvel change the team? or will they go the route of their non-U.S. counterparts and start to refer to Conan as the Cimmerian?
Again, the rights loss report hasn’t been confirmed by Marvel, so it could be a tad premature, but it does appear legitimate from the sounds of it. Losing Conan the Barbarian ahead of his new series while the character has his own solo book with King Conan makes for an odd timing for his potential departure. Time will tell if Conan the Barbarian continues with Marvel Comics, but as of right now, you might not want to get your hopes up.
