“Necropolis”

Conan faces his most elemental challenge yet in issue #205 — the cover, penciled and inked by Geof Isherwood, puts the Cimmerian warrior front and center as he strains against a towering, flame-wreathed entity that dwarfs him in both size and fury, sword raised defiantly in the chaos. Shadowy onlookers linger in the background, adding an eerie sense of scale to the confrontation. With a story titled "Necropolis" and a creative team including writer Jim Owsley and artist Val Semeiks, this 1988 Marvel entry promises dark sorcery and hard-fought survival in equal measure.
