Conan the Barbarian: The Usurper #2

Part two of "The Usurper" arrives with the tagline "Cimmerian Rage," and Steve Lieber's cover pencils make the promise feel entirely earned — a bare-chested, snarling Conan bursts upward through the snow, both arms raised and weapons in each fist, every muscle straining with barely contained fury. Behind him, the dark silhouettes of figures among snow-laden trees hint at the dangers closing in. With Dixon, Lieber, Janson, and Mitchell all aboard, this January 1998 series is shaping up to be a compelling return to Robert E. Howard's savage Hyborian world.
