A special issue launches the *Scourge of the Serpent* mini-series, featuring three standalone stories: Conan battles dark cultists in a visceral clash, Sailor Steve Costigan faces a brutal fight, and a prehistoric journey revisits Robert E. Howard’s *Spear and Fang* universe. Artists Doug Braithwaite, Roberto de la Torre, and Mike Rooth bring these tales to life, accompanied by pin-ups and covers by Mike Mignola and others.
