“Conquest”

Marvel's Conan the King #43 (November 1987) puts the barbarian king in a genuinely dire situation — the cover by Mike Docherty and Fraja Bator shows a massive, horned dragon-like creature dominating the composition, its jaws wide open and dripping as it clutches a helmeted, sword-wielding warrior in its coils against a fiery red sky. The sheer scale of the beast dwarfs its prey, making this one of the more viscerally tense covers in the series' run. Writer Don Kraar's story is titled "Conquest," which paired with that image promises the kind of savage, high-stakes Hyborian adventure that made this title a staple of 1980s sword-and-sorcery comics.
