Conan el Bárbaro #71
This volume collects issue #39 of Planeta DeAgostini's Spanish-language reprint series of Conan el Bárbaro, originally published in 1985. It continues the adventures of Robert E. Howard's iconic Cimmerian warrior, featuring classic sword-and-sorcery tales from the Marvel Comics run adapted for a Spanish audience.
Conan the Barbarian #71 (1985) features the story "El acechante oculto," with art by Barry Smith and inks by Dan Adkins, presenting Conan in a tale drawn from the enduring mythos of Robert E. Howard, adapted by Roy Thomas and Beatriz Oberlander.
In "El acechante oculto," Conan rescues Lady Aztrias of Numalia from a pack of wolves, only to be drawn into a deadly game when she hires him to steal a mysterious bowl from the wealthy merchant Kallian. The heist leads Conan into a house of shadows, where he finds the bowl empty and Kallian dead—just as the city guard arrives and pins the murder on him. With the truth hidden in the darkness, Conan must face a serpent-man with a human head, a creature born from ancient sorcery, and uncover the chilling truth behind the bowl’s curse.
In "Los guardianes de la cripta," Conan stumbles upon the ruins of the forgotten city of Lanjau, where he fights a monstrous lizard before teaming up with a nameless mercenary to uncover the city’s lost treasure. As they face undead guardians sealed within the crypt—overcome only by sunlight—the earth trembles and buries the ruins, the mercenary, and the treasure beneath. With the past sealed away, Conan finds himself once again in a nearby village, where he reunites with Jenna. When soldiers arrive to capture him, he and Jenna flee on horseback, leaving behind the ruins and the secrets they held.
In "El jardín del miedo," Conan and Jenna find themselves among a mountain tribe, only for Jenna to be snatched by a mysterious winged being. The creature, the last of its kind, flees to a tower guarded by deadly, flesh-eating flowers. With no time to spare, Conan rallies a herd of woolly mammoths to storm the tower and face the creature in a desperate bid to rescue her.
