Conan the Barbarian #263

Marked with the banner "60 Years of Barbaric Adventure, Conan the Barbarian 1932–1992," this December 1992 Marvel issue celebrates Robert E. Howard's enduring hero in rousing fashion. Cover artists Mike Docherty and Ricardo Villagrán stage a dramatic scene in which Conan is hurled upside-down through a glowing mystical portal, torch still in hand, while a menacing robed sorcerer looms to the left and a bound woman struggles in the foreground — all beneath the ominous title "Silent Death." With Roy Thomas scripting "The Voice of Moloq" and a full creative team including Mike Docherty, Ricardo Villagrán, Nelson Yomtov, and John Costanza, this is a vivid snapshot of the Cimmerian's long-running Marvel saga at a genuinely milestone moment.
