Conan the Barbarian #123
In "The Horror Beneath the Hills!", Conan ventures into the strange, decaying city of Pergona, where former allies Murilo and Jenna now rule in grotesque, bloated excess. As citizens vanish without a trace, Conan and his companions delve into ancient caverns, facing twisted creatures and a mysterious captor—Elaynia—whose motives remain shrouded in shadow. Written by J. M. DeMatteis and John Buscema, with art by Buscema and Bob McLeod, and colored by George Roussos, this 1981 Marvel classic features cover art by John Buscema.
