In "The Name Is... Yellowjacket!", Roy Thomas teams up with Barry Windsor-Smith—handling pencils, inks, and colors—to deliver a wild, high-stakes adventure where a mysterious figure in a yellow suit takes center stage. The story kicks off in the exotic land of Makkalet, where Conan and Red Sonja clash in a bar brawl, dive into a sacred fountain, scale ancient temple walls, and battle a magical serpent to steal a powerful snake-tiara—only for Sonja to outwit Conan and vanish toward Pah-Disha. The cover, by Ron Wilson and John Tartaglione, captures the moment of tension with striking flair.

In a rare moment of quiet, Henry Pym and Janet Van Dyne celebrate their marriage amidst the chaos of the Marvel Universe, only to find their vows tested when the Circus of Crime—led by the enigmatic Ringmaster—turns their wedding day into a high-stakes showdown.
