This item is part of a comic book collection, acquired in the 1960s and 1970s. The comics were for the most part, purchased from a comic book store. The Conan series was the initial reason for purchasing the comics. However, the comic storeowner asked if there was the interest in other comics and if she could put them aside for purchase. Thus, the collection grew. The comics have not been owned by anyone else and many have never been read. We are now selling these through Ebay and hope that they will enhance someone's collection.

If you purchase more than one comic from us, we would be happy to consolidate your shipment to reduce costs for Shipping and Handling. The maximum number comics that can be shipped safely is 4, provided that the thickness of the item(s) allows, in the flat rate priority envelope. For 5-20 comics, the shipping cost in a Medium Flat Rate Priority box is $14.50 USPS.

Please purchase your desired comics. I will combine the shipping cost and I will refund you the difference for the shipping cost.

"Night of the Living God!" Part 1 of 2. Guest-starring Spider-Man and Havok. Script by Chris Claremont. Pencils by John Byrne. Inks by Ricardo Villamonte. Cover by Dave Cockrum. During a quiet morning walk on Muir Isle, Alex Summers and Lorna Dane are attacked by a group of Egyptian henchmen! Meanwhile on the Empire State University campus, Peter Parker witnesses more Egyptian henchmen stealing a priceless ankh! Several hours later, the two storylines collide in New York City when Havok and the web-slinger team up to battle the Living Pharaoh! But after the pharaoh captures Havok and attaches the mystic ankh to the powerful mutant's neck...the Living Monolith walks the Earth again! What in the world is Spider-Man going to do now? Cameo appearances by Thor and the Beast. (Notes: The Living Pharaoh previously tried to tap into Havok's power in Uncanny X-men 54, 55, and 56.
