Conan the Barbarian #118
In "Valley of Forever Night," Conan the Barbarian faces a deadly mystery when he rescues Jenna, a woman scarred by a strange, spreading illness. As the two flee across treacherous terrain, they are drawn into a forgotten castle where they confront the alien Myya L'rrasleff—whose defeat brings unexpected relief. Written by J. M. DeMatteis and brought to life by John Buscema’s dynamic pencils and Ernie Chan’s inks, this 1981 Marvel classic blends visceral adventure with eerie dread, all under George Roussos’s rich colors and John Costanza’s sharp lettering. The cover, also by Buscema, captures the moment’s grim intensity.
