The Savage Sword of Conan #100

Reaching its 100th issue milestone in 1984, The Savage Sword of Conan celebrates with a striking cover painted by Joe Jusko — Conan stands defiant atop a rocky mountain pass, sword drawn and round shield raised, his red cape billowing behind him as two golden-skinned women kneel at his feet against a backdrop of jagged snow-capped peaks. Inside, the story "When a God Lives!" features the full creative talents of writer Michael Fleisher and artist John Buscema, inked by Ernie Chan with lettering by Joe Rosen. A century of Hyborian adventure makes this a satisfying landmark for any fan of Marvel's celebrated black-and-white magazine format.
