Red Sonja Commemorative Edition #[nn]

Oct 2020 · Dynamite Entertainment · [none]
“The Message”

In "The Message," Red Sonja takes on a solemn mission after rescuing a dying messenger from a brutal attack. Though the road to Gathia is fraught with danger, she vows to deliver the grim news to the walled city's people—only to find their welcome far from warm. Written by Michael Avon Oeming and Mike Carey, with striking art by Mel Rubi and vivid colors by Caesar Rodriguez and Richard Isanove, this commemorative edition captures Sonja’s fierce resolve in a story that blends peril and purpose. The cover by Lucio Parrillo perfectly frames her as both warrior and reluctant herald.

Sonja rescues a messenger from savages who have attacked him on the road. She agrees to accompany him home to Gathia but, when he later dies from drinking tainted water, she decides to deliver the message herself. She is allowed into the great walled city but the locals aren't to happy with the bad news she has to tell them.
