In "The Gem in the Tower," Conan stands atop a jagged rock, sword raised high in both hands, the aftermath of a brutal clash still echoing in the air. Ernie Chan’s dynamic art captures the moment with raw intensity, while Nestor Redondo’s cover delivers a striking, cinematic portrait of the Cimmerian in his prime.
