Barbarella / Dejah Thoris #1

Two of science fiction's most formidable women collide in this 2019 Dynamite crossover — Barbarella and Dejah Thoris are caught in a swirling vortex of light and energy on Zach Hsieh and Jimmy Reyes's kinetic cover, their figures tumbling together in a burst of radiant color. The story title alone — "Conceptually Exploiting the Construct of Time" — hints at something wonderfully strange waiting inside, with writer Leah Williams and artist Germán García steering these two wildly different heroines toward each other across time and space. It's a pairing that feels both unexpected and completely inevitable.
