The Chronicles of Conan #4

Apr 2004 · Dark Horse · 15.95 USD
“The Shadow of the Vulture!”

In "The Shadow of the Vulture!", Conan and Red Sonja clash in a fiery bar brawl before plunging into a whirlwind of temple intrigue, scaling ancient walls and stealing a cursed snake-tiara—only to face a serpent of sorcery. Written by Roy Thomas and brought to life with masterful art by Barry Windsor-Smith, this issue blends raw action with mythic atmosphere, culminating in a clever twist as Sonja vanishes into the desert, leaving Conan behind. The cover by Barry Windsor-Smith captures the moment with striking, dynamic detail.
