Conan the Barbarian #34
In "The Temptress in the Tower of Flame," Conan infiltrates the Khitan city of Wan Tengri as a spy for the Turanian army, where he assassinates the tyrant Shamash, ignites civil unrest, and ultimately frees the city's imprisoned princess. Roy Thomas crafts a taut, action-driven tale brought to life by John Buscema’s dynamic interior art, with Ernie Chua’s inks, Glynis Wein’s colors, and John Costanza’s crisp lettering. The cover by Gil Kane and John Romita captures the issue’s fiery intensity, with Ernie Chan and Romita handling the inks.
