Black and White Wednesday: "The Hyborian Age Chapter 5: Fire and Slaughter" by Thomas and Simonson

Hey, hey, hey, Groove-ophiles! Roy Thomas and Walt Simonson are back with the fifth chapter of their adaptation of Robert E. Howard's "The Hyborian Age"! "Fire and Slaughter" was first published in Savage Sword of Conan #16 (November 1976), by the way. Enjoy!

    It was a surprising treat to see Simonson on the last few issues of the Indestructible Hulk, especially with the old school Thor.
