Red Sonja: Revenge of the Gods #1

Red Sonja stands fierce and battle-ready on this striking Lucio Parrillo cover, her blood-streaked blade raised as she looms over a fallen, armored enemy whose reaching hand suggests the fight isn't quite finished. Dynamite's 2011 miniseries Revenge of the Gods opens with a premise that promises mythic-scale conflict worthy of the She-Devil with a Sword, with interior work from writer Luke Lieberman and artist Daniel Sampere bringing the story to life. If you've been looking for a bold entry point into Sonja's world, this painted cover alone makes a compelling case.
