Owner's Description
"The Garden of Fear!" This is a difficult cover to break down. Obviously, there's nothing to be said about the swordsmanship going on, as only the winged demon is armed. And really hell if I know how a left handed demon beast wields his weapon. Dissecting the cover - we have a futuristic looking tower in a garden, the tower has spikes on its otherwise smooth surface. It's very odd and contrasting looking compared to the highly detailed plants in the garden below - which have some awesome autumn colors. I'm not sure what is happening though. Conan and the chick of the month look like they are falling, Conan doesn't look like he's reaching for anything or defending himself. The demon appears to have a necklace or a pectoral of some sort in his right hand - and to be swinging the sword at Conan. I'm not sure it wouldn't be effective to just let him plummet and not go anywhere near Conan, so he doesn't end up grabbing you and riding you down. Weird cover image. Great birds-eye view. Nice coloration.
Overall - I'm not sure. I do feel like I am interested in what the story is based on the cover, and how Conan gets out of this fix, so maybe. Maybe I buy this off the spinner rack for my hard earned 15 cents.
