“The Dead of the Living Night (Second Coming of Shuma-Gorath part 1 of 9)”

In "The Dead of the Living Night" — the first chapter of the epic "Second Coming of Shuma-Gorath" arc — Conan the Barbarian awakens from a haunting dream of his village consumed by fiery rain, driving him back to a homeland he may no longer recognize. Along the way, he faces the living dead and a sinister witchman sent by the sorceress Vammatar, testing his strength and resolve in a journey steeped in dread and ancient magic. Written by Roy Thomas and brought to life with stark, evocative art by Mike Docherty, inks by Ernie Chan, and color by Nelson Yomtov, this 1992 Marvel classic features a cover by Docherty and Chan that captures the grim urgency of Conan’s quest.
