Conan Le Barbare #29
In "La fille de Zukala," Conan stumbles upon the ruined city of Lanjau, where he fights a monstrous lizard and teams up with a nameless mercenary to claim its lost treasure. Together, they battle undead guardians—overcome only by sunlight—before an earthquake seals the city and its riches beneath the earth. Escaping into a nearby village, Conan reunites with Jenna, and when soldiers arrive to capture him, the two flee on horseback into the unknown. Written by Roy Thomas and Robert E. Howard, with bold artwork by Barry Smith and inks by Tom Sutton and Tom Palmer, and colored by Mimi Gold, this 1992 issue features a striking cover by Nestor Redondo.
