In detail, in this mag Conan stars in "Black Colossus." Script by Roy Thomas, pencils by John Buscema, inks by Alfredo Alcala. Adapted from the story by Robert E. Howard.

2, A King Kull/Brule story, "The Beast From the Abyss," script by Steve Englehart, pencils by Howard Chaykin, inks by the Crusty Bunkers (Neal Adams, Russ Heath, and others, probably including Dick Giordano, Ralph Reese, and Alan Weiss).
