Red Sonja / Conan #2

Two of sword-and-sorcery's greatest warriors stand back-to-back on this striking cover by Ed Benes — the bare-chested, broadsword-wielding Conan and the fierce, flame-haired Red Sonja, each gripping their blades as a horde of monstrous creatures closes in around them from every direction. The pair look utterly unintimidated, poised for carnage amid a battlefield already strewn with the fallen. Writer Victor Gischler and artist Roberto Castro continue this Dynamite/Dark Horse co-publication team-up that puts two of fantasy comics' most enduring characters right where they belong — surrounded by danger and ready for a fight.
