“Code of the Wolf”

Mark Caparosa's painted-style cover for this 1989 Marvel magazine captures Conan mid-lunge against a craggy mountain backdrop, his muscled arm raised high with a glinting dagger poised to strike down at a helmeted, Egyptian-styled opponent below him. The raw physicality on display — gold bracers, bared teeth, and that cold mountain light — sets an intense tone for "Code of the Wolf," the interior story crafted by writer Charles Dixon and artist Gary Kwapisz with inks by Pat Redding. It's the kind of cover that reminds you exactly why Savage Sword earned its reputation for gritty, uncompromising sword-and-sorcery adventure.
