“The Battle at the Black Walls!”

In "The Battle at the Black Walls!", Conan finds himself drawn into a deadly web when Thoth-Amon appears in a dream, foreshadowing peril in the black-walled port city of Khemi. With Belit at his side, Conan storms a Stygian ship to rescue Neftha, only to face a monstrous sea-serpent and a fleet of enemy vessels in a blazing confrontation. Written by Roy Thomas and brought to life with dynamic art by John Buscema, inks by Ernie Chan, and vibrant colors by George Roussos, this 1977 Marvel classic features a cover by Gil Kane that captures the epic scale of the clash.
