“Savage Homecoming (Second Coming of Shuma-Gorath part 7 of 9)”

Part seven of the nine-part "Second Coming of Shuma-Gorath" saga arrives in Conan the Barbarian #258, and the cover — penciled by Mike Docherty and inked by Ernie Chan — sets a suitably fierce tone. A muscle-bound Conan charges forward sword in hand across a snowy landscape, a snarling white-furred beast lunging at him from the right, while a striking woman in a sweeping red dress gestures dramatically from above. Roy Thomas scripts, with Mike Docherty on interior art, keeping this long-running Marvel series well into its stride as the penultimate stretch of this multi-part epic draws near.
