In "Beyond the Black River," young Conan teams up with Jarl Njal and his band of Aesir on a perilous mission into the frozen wilds of Hyperborea to rescue Njal’s kidnapped daughter, Rann. After a scouting party is brutally captured and killed by the Witch-men of the Haloga fort, Conan slips inside to free Rann—only to be taken prisoner himself as the undead legion is unleashed upon them. Written by Roy Thomas and brought to life with bold, dynamic art by Sal Buscema, inks by Tony DeZuniga, and lettering by Joe Rosen, this issue delivers a tense, atmospheric adventure. The cover, by Earl Norem, captures the grim urgency of the moment.
