Red Sonja #1

Dynamite's 2017 relaunch drops Red Sonja — chain mail, wild crimson hair, and a fierce battle cry — right into the middle of a modern New York City street, swinging what appears to be a bizarre mechanical weapon while a creature lurks on the hood of a yellow taxi cab and stunned bystanders scramble in every direction. Writer Amy Chu and artist Carlos Gómez bring fresh energy to the She-Devil with a Sword, and Nick Bradshaw's cover art captures the delirious collision of ancient warrior and contemporary urban chaos with real kinetic flair. "Worlds Away" promises exactly the kind of fish-out-of-water adventure that makes this opening issue a thoroughly entertaining jumping-on point.
