The Savage Sword of Conan #179

A snow-swept mountain backdrop sets the stage as a bloodied, battle-hardened Conan charges forward flanked by a fierce band of warrior women — including Red Sonja herself — in this November 1990 installment of Marvel's long-running black-and-white series. Earl Norem's painted cover crackles with urgency, capturing the group mid-pursuit across a wintry landscape with swords drawn and arrows at the ready. "Fury of the Iron Damsels" promises exactly the kind of sword-and-sorcery action that made Savage Sword a standout title of its era.
