THE SAGA OF BÊLIT BEGINS!
Battle runs through Conan’s life like the blood in his veins. A stint with the mercenary Crimson Company isn’t enough to quench his furor, but perhaps consorting with Bêlit, the pirate queen of the Black Coast, can. Together she and Conan will reave across Hyboria’s high seas and into the dark depths of its jungles. There Conan will earn his honored name Amra in one of the Cimmerian’s greatest epics. Master storytellers Roy Thomas and John Buscema follow with a saga that brings Conan, Kull and even Red Sonja together. All the while, the struggle to reclaim Bêlit’s title and lands from the Stygians carries on. Also featuring an Annual adaptation of Robert E. Howard’s first Conan tale and a massive trove of rare bonus material!
