By Crom! It's gets so that a hard working barbarian can't unwind and go for a swim without running into trouble!

Maybe, but those are the rules, what can we do?
There came a time when the Old Gods died! The Brave died with the Cunning! The Noble perished locked in battle with unleashed Evil! It was the last day for them! An ancient era was passing in fiery holocaust!
I really was more of a SAVAGE SWORD guy, though in recent years I've picked up on the original color comics via the Dark Horse reprints. So I'll go with this one, which as it happens uses an image from the first Conan color comic I ever read. I like it better than the actual cover of that issue; this is actually the splash page. I'll leave the judges to rule on whether it counts or not, but it IS from the actual color Conan comic.
Judge says Marvel only, and Conan the Barbarian covers only.

Personally I'd have used a Conan vs Groo cover or the Conan vs Wolverine, but there were specific rules, and thank you to those for pointing that out to me.

I think restorative nostalgia is the number one issue with comic book fans.
A fine distinction between two types of Nostalgia:
Reflective Nostalgia allows us to savor our memories but accepts that they are in the past
Restorative Nostalgia pushes back against the here and now, keeping us stuck trying to relive our glory days.
A bit early to vote... Voting a bit later...
