L'Inattendu #7

In *Qui est Scorpion?*, a mysterious badge bearing the Scorpio symbol becomes the only clue in a deadly game of shadows. As Fury races across deserts and cities—from Nevada’s high-tech test sites to San Francisco’s back alleys and Kansas City’s underworld—each thread leads to a different man with a Scorpio tattoo, a mobster’s misplaced fortune, and a villain who speaks of vengeance from the smoke of a destroyed craft. But when the dust clears and the final pieces fall into place, one question remains: who is Scorpion?

In the treacherous Forest of Thorns, the Panther faces off against Salamander K'Ruel, one of Killmonger's deadly assassins, as the jungle itself seems to close in around them. With the shadow of a prehistoric pterodactyl looming overhead, the fight for survival becomes a test of will and instinct.

In "Celui qui préférait les ténèbres," Conan, now Captain of the royal guard and lover to Queen Fatima of Zahmahn, finds himself entangled in a deadly game when the queen discovers him with the servant girl Yaila. Cast into the dungeon to be consumed by the Dweller in the Dark, the two barely survive—but their escape comes at a cost. With tradition binding Zahmahn to a female ruler, Conan must choose a new sovereign, setting a course that will test loyalty, power, and the true meaning of rule.
