“The Flame Knife”

The Savage Sword of Conan #31 brings Robert E. Howard's Hyborian world to vivid, painted life on Howard Chaykin's striking cover, where a fierce, chained woman raises her arms defiantly amid a chaotic clash of blades and menacing figures surrounding the muscular Cimmerian warrior. The golden-orange firelit backdrop gives the scene a hellish, urgent intensity, perfectly suited to the story title "Friends of the Flame Knife." Inside, Roy Thomas scripts with John Buscema and Tony DeZuniga delivering their characteristically powerful artwork — a strong creative team working at full throttle in 1978.
