Red Sonja: The Movie #2

The concluding chapter of this two-issue Marvel limited series brings Red Sonja to a candlelit chamber where blades are already clashing — the flame-haired warrior locks swords with a pink-clad female opponent in a tense, evenly matched struggle above a cracked and crumbling floor. Mary Wilshire's cover art captures both fighters mid-grapple with real kinetic energy, a mysterious orb resting nearby hinting at darker forces at work. With a creative team that includes Louise Simonson and a story rooted in "Into the Realm of Darkness," this December 1985 issue promises a suitably fierce finish to Sonja's big-screen adaptation.
