Conan #2
"Fruktans dal" delivers a raw, vivid adventure in Conan #2 (1978), a standout issue where Conan and Jenna are guests of a primitive mountain tribe—only for Jenna to be snatched by a mysterious winged creature. The creature, the last of its kind, dwells in a tower surrounded by carnivorous flowers, forcing Conan to rally a herd of mammoths in a daring ascent to save her. With Barry Smith’s dynamic art and Sal Buscema’s inks bringing the savage landscape to life, and Barry Windsor-Smith’s striking cover capturing the tale’s primal menace, this issue stands as a gripping entry in the series.
In "Fruktans dal," Conan and Jo find themselves among a primitive mountain tribe when Jo is abducted by a mysterious winged creature.

In the corrupt city of Korinth, Conan teams up with the thief Burgun, only to see him captured and hanged by the treacherous priest Aron. As vengeance unfolds, Conan confronts the man who betrayed them, while a celestial force—manifesting as a star-god—descends to claim its due. Jenna leaves Conan for Igon, and the divine entity vanishes back into the stars after the priest’s death.
