Flames that shot out of the tip of his guitar that he played on his Mad Max-style car, that is. In his cold open Wednesday night, Conan played The Doof Warrior, a blind guitarist with a flame-throwing guitar. But instead of riding through the desert on Fury Road, Conan was riding the mean streets of California on the way to Comic-Con in San Diego. There’s just a mild problem getting there – Andy Richter, who is behind the wheel, complains to Conan, “The guitar is so loud I can’t hear the GPS!” ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3950818/conan-obrien-comic-con-mad-max/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3950818/conan-obrien-comic-con-mad-max/"},"headline":"Watch Conan Road Trip to Comic-Con 'Mad Max' Style","datePublished":"2015-07-09T12:15:38.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:21:55.738Z","description":"That's one way to make an entrance","url":"https://time.com/3950818/conan-obrien-comic-con-mad-max/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Television","Conan O'brien"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltfba716bda586fa4e/69885a338e06010e3b461504/conan-obrien-comic-con.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Tessa Berenson","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/tessa-berenson/"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltfba716bda586fa4e/69885a338e06010e3b461504/conan-obrien-comic-con.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"conan-obrien-comic-con","caption":"","creditText":"TSB/Conan","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3950818/conan-obrien-comic-con-mad-max/","name":"Watch Conan Road Trip to Comic-Con 'Mad Max' Style"}}]}] ```
