“Death in a Land Unknown”

In "Death in a Land Unknown," Conan races across a forgotten continent as the serpent men, still bound to the will of Thulsa Doom, push toward a hidden land to resurrect their master. With Doom's shadow closing in and ancient forces stirring, Conan seeks refuge with a local tribe who warn him of a slumbering deity—the rainbow serpent—whose awakening may be his only hope. Written by Roy Thomas and Dann Thomas, with bold artwork by John Buscema and Ernie Chan, and a striking cover by Earl Norem, this 1992 issue delivers a mythic clash of sorcery and survival.
