☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis volume collects issues #169–#178 of the original Marvel Comics series, featuring Conan the Barbarian in a mix of standalone adventures and longer arcs. The title story, 'Whispering Shadows,' is a Roy Thomas-scripted tale with art by John Buscema, while the collection also includes contributions from other notable creators of the era. These stories continue Conan's travels through the Hyborian Age, pitting him against sorcerers, monsters, and rival warriors.
In "The Thing in the Crypt!", Conan finds himself entangled in a deadly conspiracy when he rescues Diana from Queen Tananda’s cruel torment, only to face a monstrous swine-demon in the shadows. Written by Roy Thomas and brought to life with bold, dynamic art by John Buscema—inked by Ernie Chan and colored by George Roussos—this gripping tale unfolds in a storm-lashed city on the brink of rebellion. The cover, penciled by Buscema and inked by Chan, captures the moment of peril and escape as Conan and Diana flee the collapsing palace under a rain-soaked sky.
