*Fed up with both civilization and mysticism, Conan travels to the infamous City of Thieves to take out his frustrations. When a bar fight uncovers the legend of the impregnable Tower of the Elephant, he becomes determined to rob it, setting out on a quest unlike any he's undertaken -- one that will involve new comrades, horrifying creatures, and gruesome, unsettling fates for both gods and men.
Eisner Award-winning writer Kurt Busiek (Trinity, Astro City), Eisner Award-nominated artist Cary Nord (Secret Invasion: X-Men), the legendary Michael Wm. Kaluta, and Eisner Award-winning color artist Dave Stewart (The Umbrella Academy, Hellboy) chronicle a seminal adventure in Conan's life.
The legacy of Robert E. Howard thrives in this stunning take on a story that helped change fantasy fiction forever-with a Frank Frazetta cover that helped bring Conan to a new legion of fans in the 1960s!
