The Chronicles of Conan #4

In "The Shadow of the Vulture!", Conan carries a dangerous message from Makkalet to Pah-Disha, navigating treacherous lands where loyalty is a blade and betrayal wears a smile. Red Sonya intervenes twice to save his life, forging a tense alliance as they face the deadly Mikhal Oglu, the vulture whose shadow looms over the desert. When the reckoning comes, Conan delivers a brutal reckoning of his own—sending a severed head to the distant Yezdigerd.

In "The Song of Red Sonja," the legendary warrior Red Sonja teams up with Conan in a whirlwind of bar brawls, midnight escapes, and temple raids, chasing a cursed snake-tiara through treacherous ruins. As they battle a magical serpent and evade deadly traps, their alliance sparks tension and unexpected chemistry—until Sonja vanishes into the night, leaving Conan behind with a sly smile and a promise of distant adventure.

In the decadent city of Makkalet, as the Living Tarim breathes his last, Prince Yezdigerd marches with fury to claim the throne. Amid the chaos, Conan and Chumballa Bey race to protect Queen Melissandra as King Eannatum’s reign collapses into blood and shadow.
