“Temple of the Dragon”

In "Temple of the Dragon," Conan and the cunning thief Fafnir race against other desperate cutthroats to plunder the hidden riches of a cursed temple, unaware they’ve awakened a malevolent force. Thazarra, an ancient evil, seeks to harness a mystical jewel to breach the mortal realm, setting the stage for a clash of greed, destiny, and dark magic. Written by Michael Fleisher and brought to life with bold, dynamic art by John Buscema, inks by Armando Gil, and vibrant colors by George Roussos, this 1984 Marvel classic features a cover by Gary Kwapisz.
