Jim Zub is having a strange year, apparently.

The strangeness of my classes continues this year…

Can't argue with that. But he is also the new ongoing writer on Conan The Barbarian, a title he has been jonesing to write at Marvel. He has written the character extensively at Dark Horse Comics…

He handled all the Conan scenes in the Avengers weekly No Road Home and then he wrote Savage Sword Of Conan…

Our Conan story begins in Savage Sword of Conan #7, July 10.

Conan, in his 1st yr or two of wandering the southern realms, is embroiled in a feud between merchants in the wicked city of Shadizar.@JimZub & I are lifelong fans and Conan the Gambler doubles as a labor of love. — Patch of Zingara (@PatrickZircher) June 27, 2019

He wrote the Conan: Serpent War event and…

CONAN: SERPENT WAR #1 and 2 are going off to press soon and they look SO GOOD. Everyone on our team is digging deep and delivering their best. It's a crazy epic pulp adventure, the kind of thing I never imagined I'd get the chance to write, let alone at Marvel. pic.twitter.com/D7Dv7ylsGW — Jim Zub (@JimZub) November 12, 2019

…as of February, as revealed on Marvel's Pull List video, he'll be writing the main Conan The Barbarian for Marvel Comics from #13 with artist Roge Antonio.

Conan The Barbarian #13 It's a perfect jumping on point for new readers, Conan finds himself in the mystical U-Tara-Kuru which is further on the eastern border than the young barbarian has ever travelled and with the new city comes new dangers. Unfamiliar with the language Conan inadvertently agrees to be the latest entrant to the Great Crucible. The people of the city support their foreign champion but what will Conan sacrifice to overcome this ordeal?

UPDATE: Here's the cover and official solicit text:
