Not the kind of thing you can plan for.
I didn’t want to go into details about this in public unless Stacy did, but now that she’s posted about it, I feel okay mentioning it as well.
In short, what should have been a same-day surgical procedure for Stacy turned into a four day stay at the hospital. From Wednesday morning through to Saturday night, we rode out a roller coaster of health stuff with her and, as you might imagine, it was confusing and scary. Thankfully, she’s now at home and on the mend so we’ll see what future tests bring. Fingers crossed.
So yeah, not how I expected last week to go, but overall we’re okay. Stacy won’t be able to attend San Diego while she recuperates and my attendance was in question as well but, now that she’s home and recovering well (with family and friends available and able to help), I feel okay making the trek to California.
This will be my 21st San Diego Comic Con and, as always, I’m heading into it with a mixture of excitement and nervous energy. I’m always thrilled to see friends and fans, but also know how intense and draining it will be, especially when it crashes right up against Gen Con happening next week.
Ask Me
While I’m in San Diego, I’ll be doing an on camera interview with Penguin Random House all about my work: specific projects, the writing process, legacy, and more!
CB Cebulski was Marvel’s EiC for the majority of time as I worked on a variety of Marvel projects and, though we didn’t personally interact much, he was supportive, collaborative and we got along. I remember him being in the conference room and quite active during our in-person Avengers Summit in 2018 to build the story that became Avengers: No Road Home and he was excited for us to jam all kinds of ideas and have fun with the story.
As for new EiC Steve Wacker, the only interaction with him I’ve had was short but positive. In early 2013, I sent him an out-of-the-blue email, introducing myself and letting him know how much I was enjoying the titles he edited at that time, namely Superior Spider-Man, Daredevil, and Hawkeye. He responded, which may not sound like a big deal, but if you’ve ever worked in comics you know how difficult it can be to get an editor’s attention, especially from a cold intro like that. Taking it even further, at San Diego Comic Con that year he set up a quick meeting to introduce himself and ask me what Marvel characters I was interested in. Keep in mind, I had only a handful of writing credits under my belt at this point and he was running the Spider-Man office, so it was quite a gracious move on his part.
Assuming I had no chance at writing any A-list characters, I pitched him a few oddball Marvel project ideas with second-stringers, and he thought they sounded okay but was also quite confused.
“Is that all you’re interested in? Just the weirdos?”
“Ah, no, no. I just didn’t want to get too far ahead of myself or sound cocky. I’m interested in a lot of different Marvel characters. A-Any in particular?”
“I mean, I edit Spider-Man…so maybe think about Spider-Man stuff, okay?”
We both laughed. It was awkward. I was coming off being fired from a DC project I thought was going to be career-making and instead turned into five months of ever-shifting edicts and long gaps of communication before being unceremoniously shown the door and was still feeling raw from that experience. I was incredibly nervous and I’m sure that’s what came across to Steve, but he was solid, classy, and probably doesn’t remember this interaction at all. Six months later, he was promoted to head up Marvel Animation and moved to Hollywood, so we never had the chance to work together.
Anyways, I know a lot of people who have worked with Steve and speak highly of him, so I’m curious to see what his vision as EiC will be and how Marvel changes with this big move west. I’m sure it will fuel a lot of gossip at San Diego, that’s for sure.
The “Just Us” League
Speaking of superheroes, getting to try out the new JUSTICE LEAGUE UNLIMITED TTRPG with Mark, Alex, Johann, and Peterson was a ton of fun. Watch the first half of our adventure as I play Wally West and bring my FLASH-fulness to this new adventure:
• I’m sure almost anyone who follows my newsletter is already aware of Felicia Day‘s crowdfunding campaign for The Guild Movie, returning for their 20th anniversary but, even still, I wanted to link it here. I watched the original Guild episodes as they were posted online, was thrilled to see them carve out their spot in nerd culture, and had the chance to meet the cast at quite a few conventions over the years. Seeing creators build their own amazing stuff and get so much fan support is always amazing and inspiring.
I don’t have a table at SDCC 2026. I have signings, panels, press stuff, and meetings. Balancing all that while also trying to be hunkered down at a table would not work well, so I decided to be a free operator outside of specific time commitments.
Dan Panosian SDCC 2026 Exclusive covers for CONAN THE BARBARIAN #33.
We launched the Heroic Signatures-Titan CONAN THE BARBARIAN series 3 years ago at SDCC and each year is a reason to celebrate while we keep the momentum going. The flagship book is still roaring with issue #33 arriving at the show one week before it arrives in stores, plus Savage Sword of Conan, Solomon Kane, and more!
Currently, here’s what my pubic schedule looks like:
Thanks for the kind messages and support after last week. Nothing to talk about in public yet, but once there is news I’ll mention it here in the newsletter.
Nine days until San Diego Comic Con and that means everything is getting sorted into three piles:
• This specific thing is a mad rush because it has to get done before SDCC.
• I can’t deal with this right now because other stuff has to get done before SDCC.
• Real life that doesn’t give a solitary whiff that SDCC is happening next week.
Add in that same build up for Gen Con 2026 (happening the week after SDCC) and my inbox is a logjam of too much communication, not enough communication, and “Aw geez, why is this happening right now?”
I know these are champagne problems. Please play a very tiny violin for me. Anyways-
YES, I will be at San Diego Comic Con and Gen Con this year.

Matt Fraction mentioned Drome by Jesse Lonergan during a recent episode of The Stacks and it prompted me to track it down. Man oh man, it is just as stunning as Matt promised. Jesse performs wizardry with a comic page, building a keen sense of atmosphere, movement, and awe across this epic tale. It’s small, it’s big, it’s pulpy and strange, in all the best ways. It reminded me of the power this medium can have and got my creative juices flowing. Highly recommended.
I receive a couple of them in my inbox almost every day. Even when they’re easy to spot, block and delete, each one is a little jab, and I loathe that this technology works so hard to erode my trust in humanity.
• The announcement trailer for CHAINKATA, the next creator-owned series by Daniel Warren Johnson, does exactly what it needs to do – Sets a clear tone and gets readers excited for visceral comic action. I thought Daniel’s Do A Powerbomb mini-series was absolutely top notch and I’m incredibly excited for this.
…But what I didn’t know was that Jhonen Vasquez, the creator of Zim, didn’t know about the new series at all and feels really awkward about new material being built on his team’s hard work without any involvement or communication. I understand how crappy that would feel, even if it’s legally allowed.
Over a decade ago, when I wrote the SAMURAI JACK comic series published by IDW, the “Samurai Jack team” knew it was happening and were directly involved. Character Designer Andy Suriano drew the book and we collaborated closely on stories and visuals, Series Creator Genndy Tartakovsky and Art Director Scott Wills illustrated variant covers, and Jack voice actor Phil LaMarr raved online about how much he enjoyed the comic series. I knew Genndy was probably too busy working on other projects to personally review every script, but we had his blessing and he could give us feedback or veto ideas whenever he wanted.

Working on Samurai Jack was an incredible experience – creatively fulfilling and a huge boost to my career.
When I was approached by BOOM and they asked if I wanted to pitch stories for a new INVADER ZIM comic series, I jumped at the chance. 20 years ago, I literally created a bunch of fan art for the show for fun because I enjoyed it so much.
Invader Zim fan art by Jim Zub, circa 2006.
But this time is different from working on Jack. I was told the “Invader Zim team” would be approving our material, but found out after the fact that it wasn’t Jhonen, Eric Trueheart or anyone originally involved in the show’s production. Approvals have gone through a Paramount licensing team who I’m sure mean well, but also don’t have any personal stake in Zim’s creative vision or future.
And sure, I’ve written stories for DC and Marvel where creators of characters weren’t consulted, but those are also shared superhero universes built by hundreds of contributors. Invader Zim is Jhonen’s ideas and humorous flare with contributions by a tight knit group he curated and approved.
So now I’m in a strange spot. I’m incredibly proud of the work artist Dax Gordine and I have done on this new Invader Zim comic. It’s been put together with lots of love for the source material, but not in a slavish way that just repeats the same gags and doesn’t offer any surprises. Dax’s visual storytelling starts strong and gets snappier each issue. We produced it with what we thought was enthusiastic support from the original team, but that was not the case and now we know. No matter what happens next, I want to be as open and honest about that so there’s no confusion.
BOOM’s editorial team has assured me they’ve reached out to Jhonen and believe this can all get sorted out. I hope that’s true, but if not I’ll need to evaluate what to do next. Whatever happens from here, I deeply appreciate your support and understanding.
I was a guest again on Comic Shenanigans with Adam Chapman. This time, he and I chat up a storm about being “Grim Jim”, Stacy’s writing career, productivity, imposter syndrome, being like Bob Ross, parasocial relationships, the Glass Cannon podcast, livestreaming, collected editions, and more – Give it a listen!
You can also listen to our previous conversations here: Episodes 368, 794, 986, 1022, and 1087.
Stacy and I are visiting IRELAND for a few days in August and will be signing at Dublin City Comics & Collectibles on Wed, August 19th from 5-7pm! If you live in the area, hope to see you there!
Another busy week coming up for me as June ends and the real sprint begins. My personal goal is to get all my July and August writing done in the next three weeks so I can relax when I’m on the road for late July and most of August. Will it happen? I’ll let you know as the weeks countdown.
My Canadian and American readers have Canada Day and Independance Day coming up, meaning that most people have a shorter work week, but for me they’re probably going to be regular working days. That’s the way it goes when you’re freelancing and deadlines loom. It’s okay though, because I’m working on some wonderful projects right now. Speaking of which-
When the Invader Zim cartoon ran on TV 25 years ago, I was working at an animation studio and wished I could be part of a show so fun and subversive. Unexpectedly, now I get my chance.
A lot more details weill be revealed in the coming weeks and I’ll keep all of you up to date as that happens. All I can say for now is that our team is amazing and we’re putting our all into it. Tell your fellow earth-monkeys!

A Pirate’s Life
Conan the Barbarian #34 cover art by Esad Ribic.
Now that the Ghosts & Echoes story arc has all wrapped up (and fans seemed to really enjoy our done-in-one adventure issue) our attention turns toward our 9th story arc Cursed Shores Beyond, set in the period when Conan was part of the Red Brotherhood, a pirate crew looting ships on the Western Sea alongside the beautiful and deadly Valeria.
Back in 2014, I had the incredible honor of writing 20 issues of the Samurai Jack comic series, building on Genndy’s world and ideas inbetween season 4 and season 5 of the animated series alongside director designer Andy Suriano. That comic swept in and changed my career, putting my name in front of thousands of readers and bolstering my spirit when I genuinely thought my time working in comics was coming to an end.
Seeing Genndy and his team finally sign on to do this animated series, a dream of his for decades, is really wonderful. I don’t have any other production details I can reveal at this point, but you can read more over on the official Conan website.
Amazing Digital Insight
The Amazing Digital Circus is the most Gen-Z piece of media I have ever seen.
I don’t mean that as an insult.
It’s a genuinely insightful look at a specific cohort. Their fear of hopelessness and insignificance in a world that uses and abuses them while they try to figure themselves out.
Parts of it were great, other parts messy and unfocused, but it’s a postmodern whirlwind of conflicting messages and emotions that encapsulates people growing up in a time where everything feels wrong and no one is coming to save them.
Not all of it worked for me, but it wasn’t made for me and that was clear from the start, so I managed to enjoy most of it.
Okay, “enjoy” is the wrong word, because it’s 9 episodes that bathe in neurotic trauma wrapped in a colorful candy shell, but I appreciated the craftsmanship.
As with any piece of media I read/watch/play, I can’t help but think about what I would have changed but that would shift its intent, so I’ll step back and just say that at the right age it probably would have affected me deeply.
Also, I’m genuinely curious how the next generation builds their stories when every trope has been played-replayed-remixed-regurgitated and their parents have sold out the future for a quick buck.
CONAN THE BARBARIAN #32 arrived in stores last week, a done-in-one sword & sorcery story called “A Sacred Task”, built in the style of the original Robert E. Howard Conan stories from Weird Tales magazine. What did the critics think? Let’s find out-
• 9 Panel Grid: “Really cool, really great artwork here…You think it’s just action, but no, there’s always Lovecraft and horror aspects that get interwoven into the mysteries of this book. And that’s what this issue does in a really perfect way.”
• Comic Book Addicts: 8.8/10 “A haunting, brutal, and beautifully illustrated Conan issue that gives nostalgic fans classic sword-and-sorcery power while giving new readers an accessible road into the Cimmerian’s world.”
• Comic Book Clique: 9.5/10 “Zub is the master of the Howardian tale—his narration and dialogue are sparse and to the point, never using more or fancier words than necessary, much like Conan himself….The artwork by Braithwaite is always as sharp and true as Conan’s blade, and this issue is no exception. “
• Comic Buzz: 10/10 “Lovely end to this issue, as the plot started in one point and unexpectedly ended in another angle that will surprise readers. Another issue that should be picked up by many.”
• Comic Culture: “I am absolutely blown away by whatever this creative team is able to do with this character. It’s something new and fresh and unique every single time…As always, the interior artwork is absolutely incredible. The coloring is fantastic as well.”
• Comic Patrol: “As a one-shot, this was absolutely fantastic. You don’t need any other issues, you can just pick this up and go for it. Gorgeous art and incredible storytelling…It’s the best book on the shelves.”
• Conan Fans: 8.9/10 “This tale is full of beautiful, contrasting colors. I love the vintage-esque feel, yet it’s modern…Nice job guys. Buy a copy.”
• Cool Thunder: 9/10 “Simply put, this is exactly what you want from a sword-and-sorcery comic. Doug Braithwaite’s artwork and Diego Rodriguez’s colors have not missed a beat throughout this entire run…If you’ve been sleeping on this series, this issue is the perfect jumping-on point.”
• Cupcakes Comic Reviews: “[Conan] has been crushing it, probably the best sword and sorcery ongoing book on the stands. It’s on issue 32 and it’s been amazing the whole time.”
• Eternal Crusader: “Doug Braithwaite’s artwork is, unsurprisingly, another visual feast. His intricate linework, rich detail, and expressive faces elevate every page…Diego Rodriguez’s colors beautifully complement Braithwaite’s pencils, while Jim Zub’s rich, almost baroque prose continues to feel like a perfect match for the Hyborian Age AND the artwork.”
• Fanlight Zone: 10/10 “Thirty-Two issues in, what more can we say about how awesome Conan from Titan and Heroic Signatures has been? Jim Zub is absolutely slaying it on this book. This is the best work of his career…These are the types of runs on comics that you dream about. Grab it, love it, read it.”
• Gaming Trend: 8.5/10 “Zub gives a full fantasy quest in a single issue without feeling rushed or unsatisfying”
• League of Comic Geeks: 10/10 “The colors by Rodriguez in this one are off the charts beautiful. He makes things glow that should glow and allows others to simmer in darkness when appropriate…This book was perfect for me and I’ll remember it for quite a while.”
• Old Man Hyborian: “Jim Zub’s standalone story was a welcome treat, I enjoyed it. And Doug Braithwaite’s art was top-notch. He’s doing very well with the artwork…Not one thing wrong with this issue.”
• Pop Culture Philosophers: “A really great, solid story. I feel like Jim Zub has settled into the perfect Robert E. Howard groove to continue the story of Conan the Barbarian and Doug Braithwaite’s artwork is magnificent!”
• Stygian Dogs: “A satisfying one-and-done adventure. It’s succinct, pulpy, and packed with bone-splintering action wonderfully depicted by Doug Braithwaite…It’s a nice break from the longer arcs and the Black Stone journey.”
• Thinking Critical: “It’s a strong recommend for Conan the Barbarian for me. It continues to be one of the best in in the industry…Jim Zub, has nailed down this character.”
• Two Guys and a Stack of Comics: “You could pick up an issue like this and it just blew me away – The completeness of the story and the brevity of it in one comic and how rich it was. It was so beautifully crafted…The artwork is just breathtaking.”
• Unc Blerd: “When I read Conan books I seldomly get emotionally attached to the characters, but this was so well written that you really felt empathy for this mysterious woman by the end of it”
This week is a bit of a sprint. Stacy and I have a manuscript due for the next D&D Young Adventurer’s Guide (yes, more are in development, but titles haven’t been announced yet – The book market works really far in advance) and other comic writing deadlines loom in the foreground of my To-Do List. The month leading up to San Diego Comic Con is usually a rush and this year is no exception.
Conan the Barbarian #32 cover art by Nick Percival.
In stores on Wednesday is CONAN THE BARBARIAN #32, a done-in-one story I’m really proud of, built to feel like a classic Weird Tales-era Conan story. Back in the 70’s and 80’s, these kind of self-contained adventures were the norm on a book like Conan, which also meant it was easy to bring new readers on board, giving them a complete reading experience for the cover price of a single issue.
So, if you follow this newsletter and haven’t had the chance to read the series yet, do me a favor and check this one out. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised, and Doug Braithwaite‘s line art mixed with Diego Rodriguez‘s colors is always a winner.
A mysterious woman with an even more mysterious mission hires Conan to be her bodyguard on a sacred task across forbidden lands. Is any reward worth the risk? The Cimmerian is about to find out…
The discourse about AI use in creative projects is a steady thrum now. Is it “inevitable”, as the AI companies want people to believe, or will it pop like NFTs and other tech trends that had limited useage but weren’t as transformative as the market assumed? Only time will tell, but in the here and now I know how it affects my current workflow – not much at all.
When Midjourney first launched free online, I typed in a half-dozen image prompts and thought the output looked creepy. That’s the only time I sought it out.
I’ve never used AI to make text for my writing or correspondence. I don’t have any Ai-dedicated programs installed and turn off AI features I find in tools I use.
Once I found out that AI was predictive text not actual knowledge and that platforms were being trained on material without permission or compensation, I knew that using it for writing would both be a copyright minefield and morally bankrupt.
Because AI systems are being injected into so many programs and platforms, I’m sure it’s a background presence as I work (AI summaries on research that I don’t trust until I dig deeper, AI generated captions on audio, etc.) but I do not want generated material in my plots, descriptions or dialogue.
I know large language models and neural networks can be useful at sifting through data and have powerful applications in science and medicine, but think that its use in creative art and writing robs creators of personal analysis and growth.
Storytelling and making art is more than just output, even when it’s a commercial endeavor. They’re time capsules of who you are at that moment – Your skill and development. Your priorities and influences.
Offloading that to the randomness of those systems closes you off from that growth.
I want a glimpse at the people who made that story/art, I want to see their specific choices and collaborations, not a random homogenized product they pasted together and put their name on.
Less ‘perfect’, possibly, but far more insightful and tactile.
Building a Beautiful Brick
Speaking of self-contained time capsules, late last week I finished laying out and uploading print files for the upcoming WAYWARD COMPENDIUM, the 904-page softcover compilation of the creator-owned series Steven Cummings and I published at Image from 2015 to 2018. Going back through all 30 issues brought on a rush of great memories and reminded me of how proud I am of what our team put together.
This Compendium arrives in September and will give readers who never had the chance to discover the series when it first came out an easy way to read it all, and retailers an even easier way to keep it in stock since this book will be one beautiful value-priced brick instead of six separate trade paperbacks.
Buy one for yourself, got another as a gift for someone you know. It’s gonna be a beauty.
Apologies for the last minute change, but I’m unable to attend Fan Expo: Anaheim this week. Personal stuff has come up and I need to be here at home. Thanks for your understanding.
Titan Comics and Heroic Signature’s BRAND NEW Conan Crossover Adventure Starts This September!
Teased on Free Comic Book Day 2026, a new Conan event miniseries launches this September – TIDES OF THE TYRANT-KING! It’s the perfect opportunity for new readers to dive into a huge and exciting new adventure for the Cimmerian! Written by the legendary JIM ZUB and illustrated by the incredible JÉSUS MERINO, issue #1 features a range of variant covers by artists ROBERTO DE LA TORRE, UTSAB CHATTERJEE, GERARDO ZAFFINO, JÉSUS MERINO and STUART SAYGER.
CONAN OF CIMMERIA believed that THULSA DOOM’s evil had been banished forever, but the Atlantean necromancer’s dark power stirs once more and, if it cannot be stopped, the dead shall overtake the living! The Tyrant-King of Atlantis returns and all shall suffer, unless Conan and his brave allies can turn back the tide!
The story follows Conan the Barbarian and Stephen Costigan, warriors in different times – their battles mirrored, as both are connected by a familiar evil that seeps its way into each tale…
On September 23rd, readers can pick up the debut issue of CONAN: TIDES OF THE TYRANT-KING and dive fully into this brand new adventure and, a week before that release, on September 16th, readers can prepare for Tides of The Tyrant-King with a special issue of THE SAVAGE SWORD OF CONAN #16 that will have three thrilling tales written by JIM ZUB.
Featuring a mesmeric Conan tale of corrupted memories and creeping madness with artist NICOLA SCOTT, a return to the weird western world of Howardian gunslinger Steve Corcoran in a sequel to the classic Robert E. Howard tale “Vultures of Whapeton” with artist CHRIS CAMPANA, and a descent into the shadowed past of mini-series femme fatale Zuleika with artist SEAN IZAAKSE, all of it bolstered by an array of pin-ups and incredible covers from JOE JUSKO and NICK PERCIVAL!
Sitting at Robert E. Howard’s writing desk is surreal and amazing. Worlds poured forth from this humble spot.
When I attended Robert E. Howard Days in 2024, I was incredibly nervous. Even though Jeff Shanks reassured me that I’d fit in well with the deeply dedicated fans who gather in Cross Plains, Texas every June to celebrate Bob’s creativity and legend, I still wasn’t sure if I would be accepted or if the new Conan the Barbarian series published by Titan would last.
Two years later, it felt different in all the best ways.
The town of Cross Plains (population: 900) seems more comfortable with the legacy of their most famous son and I was also a lot more comfortable with where things are at with the comics and other future plans.
As a surreal example of how much the town has started to embrace their legacy as the birthplace of Robert E. Howard, last year the town’s high school marching band took 1st place in state competition with a Conan the Barbarian-themed performance!
Onward to 2026 – It was Texas in June, so the heat was intense and drive from Dallas a bit monotonous, but from the moment I arrived on Thursday afternoon, things were hopping. In 2024 I also arrived on Thursday and there were only three of us there filming interviews and B-roll material for the official Conan YouTube channel. This time, I pulled up to the house and there were at least 30 people already hanging out and a small cheer sounded as I walked over to the pavilion. That set the pace for the next two days – More people than expected and tons of positive energy.
I donated some sketch cover drawings to the silent auction.
I was a bit surprised when Jeff Shanks didn’t put me on any panels on day one, but he told me the best thing I could do was “be Jim Zub” – Stay near the house, greet newcomers, sign books, and chat. That advice worked out really well and there wasn’t a slow moment at any point. I signed hundreds of comics and collected editions, raising money for the REH House restoration fund and answered questions from readers about what it was like working with so many amazing artists on the series.
There were buses full of people going on tours of the town and surrounding area, discussion panels at local churches and cafes, and local restaurants were packed with visitors. From a quick show of hands at the banquet Friday night, I’d estimate around 20% of the people were attending Howard Days for the first time this year, and everyone I interacted with seemed to have a great time.
Orating REH poetry on the front porch of the house is a Saturday evening tradition.
A few people asked if I was going to be part of the traditional poetry reading on the porch Saturday evening so I finally caved and joined it. Like last time, I read an original poem from Savage Sword, this time Kinship of the Fallen. I’ll be honest, as I stood up there and people cheered, I got a bit verklempt. The excitement and engagement from everyone was really special.
Howard Days isn’t a convention or book festival in the traditional sense. It’s a gathering, a reunion, and a hangout with a lot of Texas hospitality and a bit of sword & sorcery flare. One of the people I chatted with told me that for him 50% of it was a celebration of Howard and the other 50% was about friendships he’d made, year after year. That sounded pretty much bang-on.
Meeting up with friends and fans before, during, and after the event felt great but it also zipped along so quickly that I’m honestly still processing some of it. Thanks to everyone who came out and all the enthusiasm you brought.
This SATURDAY, JUNE 20th: I’m one of the speakers for the Afterlives of World Building: The Legacy of Robert E. Howard online educational conference put together by East Texas A&M University that will run from Noon-5:30pm EDT (10am-3:30pm MDT).
The programming is FREE to watch, but registration is required, so check the link for details. There are 260 seats available for the livestream: https://lair.etamu.edu/tdm/
