The Savage Sword of Conan #121
In "The Fountain of Umir," Conan ventures into a hidden monastery where, once a year, liquid gold erupts from a granite rock on the harvest day of Sultas. Sent by King Aragu to eliminate the rebel Dachivu, Conan is equally driven by the promise of the golden torrent. Written by Larry Yakata and brought to life with striking detail by Rudy Nebres, this issue blends myth and greed in the grimy, vivid world of Hyboria. The cover by Joe Jusko captures the tale’s primal intensity.
