When Conan rides west he expects trouble. What he doesn't expect is a cursed fishing village, a mad priest, or a sea-beast the size of bus.In Episode 61 we slam headfirst into Conan the Barbarian #39 in which bandits ambush the our hero, his horse is ruined, a venomous snake knocks him on his ass, and fate (and a fierce young woman named Rachalla) hauls him back from the brink.What follows is pure, uncut pulp. A seaside town held hostage by a priest who trades blood for false salvation, virginal sacrifices chained to rocks, and a gargantuan dragon that’s really a nightmare crocodile erupting from the surf.So grab your copy and gird your loins because this is one monster fight you can read in a single gulp.Conan the Barbarian #39: The Dragon from the Inland Sea was published by Marvel Comics in March of 1974.Enjoy!Hither Came Conan is a production of Steeven Orr Else Media.
