Conan The Barbarian by Jason Aaron

A sweeping, blood-soaked saga follows the Cimmerian across the Hyborian Age as a sinister cult led by the Crimson Witch hunts him from youth to kingship, seeking his blood to resurrect a death god. Through episodic adventures as thief, pirate, mercenary, and ruler, fate tightens its grip until he’s slain and dragged to the god’s realm, where he claws his way back to life, shatters the cult’s plans, and proves his indomitable will.
