Conan the Barbarian #70

In "The City in the Storm!", Conan, Belit, and their corsair crew fight to hold the storm-lashed island city of Kelka against the brutal onslaught of Auro and his Argossean pirates. After a desperate defense, they’re betrayed and captured by Kelka’s enigmatic ruler, Akkheba, who serves them wine laced with a strange drug. Written by Roy Thomas and brought to life with dynamic art by John Buscema and Ernie Chan, with inks by Chan and colors by Michele Wolfman, this 1977 Marvel classic delivers high stakes and shifting loyalties. The cover, by Gil Kane and Pablo Marcos, captures the storm’s fury and the city’s peril.
