MARVEL GRAPHIC NOVEL: CONAN THE BARBARIAN IN THE SKULL OF SET (1989)
By Doug Moench & Paul Gulacy

APPEARANCES:
Conan, Tamara (warrior bride of Mitra), Lord Arides (aristocrat), Lady Vasallia (Arides wife), Borondo (merchant), Khorus (reanimated demon of Set), a Set devotee, Argos magistrate & soldiers, bandits

SYNOPSIS:
As war nears between Argos and Koth, Conan is recruited by the Argossean magistrate to transport a wagon of weapons to an outpost to help his forces. Conan spots an ambush by bandits and prepares to fight it but discovers the wagon is loaded with treasure instead of weapons. Conan makes it through but his caravan is killed (except one, whom he kills when he turns treacherous). Soon after Conan comes across a broken carriage (an aristocrat & his wife, a merchant, a bride of Mitra) and offers them a ride. They’re attacked by bandits and are forced into a temple of Set. They’re attacked again by Argos soldiers who are looking for a traitor in the group Conan picked up. A Set worshipper reanimates some demons of Set; they’re eventually defeated. Conan out the merchant as the traitor and wanders off.
