Conan the Barbarian #3

In "Valley of Forever Night," Conan encounters Vonndhar, a man cursed with immortality by the dark god Erlik, who has come to decide the fate of a woman named Jenna. As the two warriors face a trial of loyalty and sacrifice, a moment of profound betrayal leaves Conan disillusioned, and he departs from Jenna, striking out alone. Written by J. M. DeMatteis and brought to life with powerful artwork by John Buscema—both in pencils and inks—this 1984 issue features a striking cover by Buscema, capturing the grim intensity of the tale.
