Conan de Barbaar Special #1

In "Koningin van de zwarte kust," Conan narrowly evades capture in Messantia by fleeing aboard a southern-bound ship, only to be seized by the feared Black Corsairs under the command of pirate queen Bêlit. Forced to prove his worth in combat against the warrior Odongo, Conan emerges victorious and earns Bêlit’s respect—leading to a swift alliance and a bond that ignites both loyalty and passion. As the Black Corsairs sail the treacherous waters of the black coast, Conan finds himself drawn into a world of danger, intrigue, and a love that could shape his fate.

In "De ballade van Belit," Conan listens as N’yaga recounts the tale of a warrior queen whose fate is woven with myth and vengeance. Bêlit, the rightful heir to the throne of Asaglun, was orphaned by her uncle Nim-Karrak’s treachery and raised in secret, her name whispered as the daughter of the goddess Derketa. Now a fierce pirate, she sails the seas not for plunder, but to reclaim what was stolen—her throne, her blood, and her destiny.

Conan tracks a trail of blood and betrayal through the dense jungles of Watambi, where a mutiny led by Kawaku threatens to unravel their quest. With Ombassa's cunning and Nyami's sharp eyes, the group presses on—only to face a monstrous Giant Moth and a deadly ambush by Crocodile Warriors, where Conan's blade meets fury and fate.
