Great comic. Red Sonja faces the Norse methodology. Great artwork, with Sonja looking as good as ever. The story is good as well. Traveling though the mountains Sonja, discovers a young boy excluded from the local drinking hole, of course this will not stand. However was this meeting more fate than coincidence.Sonja has taken down her share of monsters and demons, but these are "Gods" and "Demi Gods", could she have met her match? We also see the rise of the Norse mythologies most iconic charact...
I'm really only reading these because they were free on Comixology, and also I suppose I am the demographic who doesn't take much to be entertained by a hot babe in a chainmail bikini.Still, the Dynamite run of Red Sonja has been pretty weak, story-wise. In this one, Sonja meets a red-headed kid who declares that like him, Sonja is a member of the "Budini" tribe who have been oppressed and persecuted for ages because of their red hair (but Sonja has somehow never heard of these people before).

Very goodI know this book messes with Norse mythology but that's the point of these books, to give a variation on old stories. I enjoyed both the artwork and the storyline and it gives some light relief to more weighty books.
Was fun to read.
Truth be told this is my first Red Sonja comic and even now I only picked it up because I found it on a list about books based on Norse mythology.

Why couldn't they just make up three more names and let them be some rand
I would rather read wallpaper.
I grew up on Marvel Comics' version of Red Sonja, so I've been eager to see how the She Devil with a Sword has been treated in the since years my attention has been away from the comic book world. I picked up a used copy of the Dynamite comics Red Sonja collection Death and was less than impressed, but when I heard about this volume in which Sonja meets non-Marvel versions of Thor and Loki, I thought I'd give it a look.I'm glad to say this one fared much better. While the story sticks to tried a...
So much effort put in this one. But I just do not get why wank with Norse gods. What makes them cooler than making up your own gods? After all.... people have made those ones up since the dawn.
It's not a bad story this one but I just found the addition of the Norse gods a little odd. Art is decent.
