The Savage Sword of Conan #231

Issue #231 of The Savage Sword of Conan delivers exactly what its cover promises — a muscle-bound Conan locked in ferocious combat with a snarling, crimson-skinned demon wielding a war hammer, the two figures clashing against a backdrop of countless skulls and leering faces. Dan Lawlis's cover art captures the raw physicality of the Hyborian Age with real energy, the demon's taloned hands and gaping maw matched against Conan's sheer, unrelenting fury. Promising "three times the action" with stories featuring Kull the Conqueror, Red Sonja, and Conan himself, this 1995 Marvel magazine offers a satisfying triple-feature for fans of sword-and-sorcery adventure.
