Conan the Barbarian #73

Featuring:
An unidentified REH outline "The Well of Skelos"
http://howardworks.com/Conan_the_Barbarian73-Marvel.html

The credits in CONAN THE BARBBARIAN #73 state that the story was
"Freely adapted from a plot by REH."

In BARBARIAN LIFE Volume 2, Roy Thomas writes that the story was from
a "page-or-so-long outline of a story called  'The Well of Skelos'
written sometime in the 1920s or early 1930s by REH." 
Thomas also writes that Glenn Lord sent him the synopsis to possibly
turn into a Conan story. As best he recalls, the outline was a pirate
piece, possibly for Black Vulmea.
