"Know also, O Prince, that in the selfsame days that the Cimmerian did stalk the Hyborian Kingdoms, one of the few swords worthy to cross with his was that of a warrior-woman out of majestic Hyrkania. She, the mother of vengeance, hunter of evil, all fear for your souls... fear the RED SONJA!" -The Nemedian Chronicles
Dynamite Entertainment today announced that not only were they out of stock of the RED SONJA: ONE MORE DAY ONE-SHOT, but it was also nearly out of stock at the distributor level. Put those two together and what do you have? SOLD-OUT!
“Well, that was fast. We had a healthy over-print as well since Jimmy and Justin kicked so much @$$ on their Conan one-shot, but the fans really ate up their take on Sonja,” commented Dynamite Spokesperson J. Allen. “We’ll take a look at the marketplace and see what the thoughts are about a second printing. But for now a quick plug, get to your shop and get your copy (if you haven’t already). Fans, make sure you reserve your local retailers have enough of the upcoming RED SONJA GOES EAST ONE-SHOT (SEP052868) on order!”
Reviews for this SOLD-OUT one-shot continue to pour in:
From the Newsarama Review Boards: “Red Sonja: One More Day by Troy: Gray and Palmiotti are at it again, this time breathing life into a different kind of loner. Dynamite’s revival of Red Sonja has thrived by sticking to the simple idea that Sonja is a remarkable warrior first, and just happens to look like how she looks. That seems simplistic, but it really helps fix the character’s value firmly in place. Said character is terrifically depicted by Liam Sharpe; he manages to make Sonja sexy and steely on every page, never losing site of the notion that her true power is behind her eyes, not her chainmail. If the creative team on the regular splits, call these guys first.”
From the Comixtreme Review Boards: “If you buy it, get ready for some blood, gore, a bit more blood and then a bloody death. But its all in good fun.”
RED SONJA: ONE MORE DAY (JUN052902) is a $4.99, 40 page one-shot, written by - Jimmy (Conan/Hawkman/Batman/Jonah Hex) Palmiotti and Justin (Batman/Hawkman/Jonah Hex) Gray, illustrated by Liam Sharp and featuring two covers - shipping in an equal split - by Liam Sharp who also provides the stunning interior art.
In "One More Day" Red Sonja leads a rag-tag army against their oppressors and finds honor, courage, and death on the battlefield!
The armies of Graven Sul, campaigning across the known lands are feared throughout the world for their brutality. To them all that matters is conquest for their lord, to burn every kingdom from the face of the earth and leave no survivors. As a battle rages and all hope is seemingly lost, one brave warrior, a she-devil with flaming red hair rises to the call of King Varick to aid his men and save his throne. All that stands between the kingdom of Varick and Graven Sul is Red Sonja.
