Spider-Man / Red Sonja #1

Spider-Man / Red Sonja #1 (2007) brings together two iconic figures in a bold crossover that kicks off with a museum exhibit gone wrong: a frustrated politician unleashes the ancient sorcerer Kulan Gath, who begins turning modern New York into a medieval nightmare. With most of the city transformed and only Spider-Man unaffected, he races to the Metropolitan Museum to uncover the source—only to find Mary Jane climbing its side, where she seizes a mystical sword and becomes Red Sonja. Written by Michael Avon Oeming and illustrated by Mel Rubi, with colors by Brian Buccellato and letters by Simon Bowland, the issue’s striking cover by Michael Turner and Mark Roslan captures the moment the worlds collide.
