"La Hija del Gigante de Escarcha" introduces a bold, reimagined chapter in the Marvel-era Conan saga, set in a distant future where women rule and the princess Lyra wields both sword and secrecy. Written by Stan Lee and Joan Josep Mussarra, with dynamic art by John Romita and lettering by Marina Ariza, this story explores forbidden bonds and political intrigue in a world where loyalty is tested in silence. The cover, a striking piece by John Buscema, captures the tension of a realm where power and passion clash.
In the frozen peaks of a forgotten realm, Conan stumbles through the snow, the last survivor of a brutal clash. He follows a mysterious girl named Atali into the wilds, unaware she’s a trap set by her giant brothers—until he defeats them both. When her father, the mountain giant Ymir, claims her, Conan is left with only a fragment of her veil as proof. Hours later, his companions find him alive, shaken by the tale—and uneasy over the strange relic still clutched in his hand.
In a far future ruled by women, Princess Lyra of the 23rd century guards forbidden secrets in her forbidden chamber—until her slave’s unexpected intrusion ignites a dangerous bond. When her rebellion is ambushed and she’s forced to choose between confessing treason or killing the man she’s come to love, Lyra faces a brutal decision that will test her loyalty and her soul. Written by the creators of the original Marvel Conan era, this gripping tale of power, desire, and defiance unfolds in just ten pages.

The fusion of serum and swamp mutates him into the monstrous, tormented being known as the Man-Thing.
In the heart of the African nation of Potonga, Governor Joshua fights to protect his people from exploitation and violence—until a fabricated scandal implicates him in a forbidden relationship with a white woman, shattering his life and forcing him to flee his home.

In "La Noche del Dios Oscuro," Conan returns to Cimmeria only to find Mala vanished, snatched by the vanirios. Pursuing them in a boat, he stumbles upon a derelict ship filled with dead Vanires and Pictos—and a dark idol that awakens an ancient dread.
