Savage Sword of Conan #41, 1979 Prelim colour cover Earl Norem

It's raw and more savage in this form before Norem refines and sets in stone the cover image!  Bondage and topless for both Conan and the damsel!

Yeah Norem always manages to catch the raw story and image straight away with his prelim drawings. I got told he worked quite quickly at this stage.

Chabela and Nzinga, sweet - hang onto that wife!

Thanks. Yeah she's great, and this was a great suprise, so even better.

Yes Princess Chabela is perfect, and the story has Nzinga having Conan as a stud, and the humiliation of Chabela.
