Conan the King #35

Conan charges headlong into chaos on this July 1986 cover, armored and caped atop a powerful dark horse, sword raised high as flames erupt behind him and fallen enemies scatter at his mount's hooves — a battleground scene rendered with real kinetic energy by cover artists Judith Hunt and Armando Gil. With a title like "The Ravaged Land," the stakes feel suitably kingdom-wide, and the surrounding warriors — some fleeing, some defiant — suggest Aquilonia's king is very much in the thick of it. A solidly crafted entry in Marvel's long-running Hyborian Age saga, perfect for fans who like their royal intrigue delivered at a full gallop.
