Publisher’s description

In this issue: "The Armor of Zulda Thaal" by Michael Fleisher, John Buscema and Ernie Chan "An ancient horror from beyond time proves to be more than a hardened Cimmerian mercenary can handle, as Conan goes up against a foe bearing armor that makes him virtually invincible - and loses!" "Escape from the Temple" by Ernie Chan "Conan fights his way out of a Kushite human sacrifice ritual, and makes his daring escape from the city. This series of lavishly illustrated pinups were conceived and executed by Conan embellisher supreme Ernie Chan."
