Description

I wanted a Savage Sword of Conan cover, and so I’m happy to have acquired this lovely piece by Joe Chiodo. This cover was apparently also used as a cover for Conan Saga 69. I feel bad for the rather majestic gorilla-like monster though. Conan always wins.

Heritage was kind enough to broker this piece from the previous owner.

Sweet painting in the fantasy illustration tradition for apes, babes, and a life and death fight.  The green ape is a rare beast and sticks out even for Conan who has bested the rest of them.

I hope that's not Changeling from the Teen Titans who Conan is about to take down!  Fabulous cover!

They say there are three things required for a great Conan cover: 1. The Barbarian, 2. The Beast, 3. The Babe. Looks like you got three out of three! Congrats!

Great Conan cover!  Sad about the Gorilla but he shouldn't have picked a fight with Conan especially over a woman :)

Now this is peak Savage Sword of Conan greatness! Chiodo absolutely nailed the classic pulp fantasy vibe. The bold composition, the raw energy, and those hazy looking mountains in the background. Conan looks ferocious and unstoppable, but yeah, gotta feel a little bad for the beast, it never had a chance! Amazing that you landed this that deal you brokered with Heritage, too. Epic score, Michael!
