Red Sonja Reunites With Torunn Grønbekk This Holiday!

Posted on September 18, 2026 by Graphic Policy Team Leave a comment

Dynamite has announced a creator and character reunion as well as a holiday celebration, all going down this December in the Red Sonja Solstice Special!

Writer Torunn Grønbekk returns to the She-Devil With a Sword, following her acclaimed 18-issue saga that ran from 2023 to 2025. The Norwegian scribe was able to channel a unique lens into the sword and sorcery genre, and she picks right up where she left off tapping into that here with this unique approach to a holiday special. Her partner on this quest is artist Edson.

It is midwinter in the Hyborean Age, and people everywhere are celebrating the holiday season. Having come into some gold on a recent swashbuckling adventure, Red Sonja is herself celebrating in a tavern enjoying some feasting and drink.

All that tranquility is terrifyingly shattered as the fiery-haired sword-swinger makes a trip to a cursed village, with demons, slaughter, and carnage in its wake. Holiday celebrations can often get hectic, but not quite as bloody and deadly as this!

Vampirella cover artist extraordinaire Francesco Mattina is joined on the covers slate by instant all-star Josephine Tomarchio, who stunned with her Dynamite Debut on Sonja’s Women of Dynamite compatriot Vampi’s new Paradise series. Her contribution here is no less awe-inspiring, and is also featured for the design of the mystery blind bags. The team is rounded out by favorite cosplayer Megan Random.

Vampirella in Paradise… Or Not? Tom Sniegoski’s Next Saga Starts November!

Posted on August 14, 2026 by Graphic Policy Team

The Daughter of Drakulon has faced death and rebirth, and lived to tell the tale. Now this November, Tom Sniegoski‘s three decades and running chronicles of Vampirella continue in Paradise.

Fan-favorite writer Sniegoski and artist Edu Menna reunite for the next chapter in this continuity which has put the raven-haired anti-heroine through the ringer in recent years. At the finale of the preceding series Vampirella Armageddon, Almighty God bestowed upon Vampi a wondrous gift — yet the dreamlike paradise she finds herself in is not what it seems.

Classic foes from her rogues gallery return, as the Mad God of Chaos and the Blood Red Queen of Hearts haunt and corrupt this new world. It’s up to Vampirella to unfold the darkness as she is called to battle once more!

Sniegoski is approaching this latest chapter through a unique lens, following Armageddon which served as a final, apocalyptic battle between light and darkness. That chapter brought some things full circle, tying up certain key themes and threads that have run through his Vampirella works going back to the early 1990s. Now Paradise answers a crucial question — what if Vampirella finally caught a break? But of course, it’s not quite that easy… so where will the most prolific creator in Vampirella’s history take her next?

In addition to the gorgeous artwork of Edu Menna, this new series has the ultimate crimson cherry on top with a range of jaw-dropping covers. Superstar Francesco Mattina returns to the character and leads the theme of fabulous frames around these masterpieces. Vampi mainstay Joseph Michael Linsner joins the party. While this book marks the Dynamite Debut of artist Josephine Tomarchio, with an instant classic. Cosplayer Lauren Delorean is featured on a cover. Collectors can seek out the mystery blind bag for even rarer versions of these covers and other surprises!
