Get an early look at the Red Sonja/Hell Sonja crossover

Posted on by

Dynamite has revealed some early sneak peek pages from the upcoming epic crossover series Red Sonja/Hell Sonja. Artist Miriana Puglia depicts a savage scene with her electrifying inks, bringing to the page the exciting story from Samurai Sonja, Aquaman and Milestone Initiative writer Jordan Clark.

The unexpected alliance between Red Sonja and her multiversal demoness counterpart Hell Sonja follows the epic events of previous hit titles Sonjaversal and Hell Sonja, a concept that also included writer Jordan Clark’s thrilling Samurai Sonja. The two She-Devils must team up to take down an immensely powerful dark entity from another world for a cosmic horror throwdown.

Red Sonja/Hell Sonja #1 is in the current October release of the Previews catalog, available to preorder now ahead of its December release. The first issue features covers by Lucio Parrillo, Lesley “Leirix” Li, Joseph Michael Linsner, Rebeca Puebla, and cosplayer Rachel Hollon.
