Last month, Marvel debuted the Savage Avengers, an ongoing series about a new unsanctioned team featuring Conan, Wolverine, Venom, Punisher, and Doctor Voodoo. Conan and Wolverine fought in the first issue before reaching a mutual understanding with each other. However, Voodoo was seemingly murdered in a bid to raise an ancient god.

In Superhero Hype’s first look at Savage Avengers #2,  Gerry Duggan and artist Mike Deodato reveal that one of Conan’s old foes is behind the plot. Johan Richter, a German pilot, also enters the spotlight. During World War II, Johan crashed landed in the Savage Land. Johan was already an evil man before he arrived. But now he’s been elevated into a threat that even the deadliest Marvel heroes can’t face alone.
