Publisher’s description
In this issue: "Revenge of the Sorcerer" by Michael Fleisher, Gil Kane and Zoran Vanjaka. "Conan's life and death struggle against the malevolent Sorcerer-Priest G'humen Thak reaches it's soul-numbing conclusion as the Cimmerian warrior journeys to the villain's treasure house. What follows is a deadly contest with the mind of the Goddess-Princess Ayella as the prize!" "Lion of the Waves" by Alan Zelenetz and Pablo Marcos "A sextet of pulsating pin-ups set to mythic rhyme."
