Conan: The Frazetta Cover Series features Frank Frazetta’s stunning painting, “The Destroyer,” and includes an adaptation of “The Hall of the Dead”- an unfinished tale left by Robert E. Howard and fleshed out by Mike Mignola, Cary Nord, and Dave Stewart.
Pursued by a small army, Conan heads for shelter in the ancient ruins of a forgotten city, lured by a flimsy rumor of treasure. Instead, he finds the fallen idols of twisted gods and a lot of croaking creatures. Luckily, frogs are no match for an armed Cimmerian… right? Conan soon finds himself battling a slithering monstrosity and an onslaught of undead warriors! Retainers to a lord long forgotten awaken to protect a treasure so sizable even the dead can’t bear to see it stolen. Can a cunning Cimmerian and a foe-turned-ally withstand the power of such dark sorceries long enough to escape with some loot and their lives?

I dropped the ongoing Conan series last issue, but i’ll still be picking these Frazetta covers up! I actually dont have a lot of the older issues that these are coming from so its turning out to be a nice little set of stories nicely re-packaged without making me feel ripped-off from re-buying issues.
