Crimebuster Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Went to Boston Comic Con last weekend and found the Fiona Staples variant of Red Sonja #1 in a 3 for $1 box. Gail Simone was at the show, so I bought it and marched right over to her table: I asked her if there were any plans to have Mary Wilshire contribute something to the series, but she didn't seem to be familiar with Mary. She seemed interested, though, so I ended up emailing her some info about Mary Wilshire and Louise Simonson's run on Red Sonja. It would be cool if Mary and Louise did something for Dynamite.

Dr. Balls Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Well. At least we know Sonja's a real redhead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wizardseye311 Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 It seemed almost insulting that Mary or Louise weren't involved in the reboot. Glad they're finally waking up to the fact that women had already done Red Sonja before. Which was the whole gimmick behind the reboot. Haven't read any of the new stuff. How's the writing, artwork, etc.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How's the writing, artwork, etc.? I really like the new Red Sonja stuff at Dynamite. I'm up to issue 6 I believe, and the first story arc was kinda awesome. I hadn't read RS for years, so I decided to jump back in, now I have to find back issues of previous series'. Gail Simone's writing was great for the character and Walter Giovanni is really coming along as a storyteller. It took me a bit to warm up to his work, but from a storytelling standpoint, he's pretty good - his art really added to the depth of the story. He's able to convey a lot of emotion, perspectives, action and makes the effort to give the series a well-rounded look. It's definitely worth picking up and giving it a read.

Brian48 Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I should also note, there's a beautiful run of Barry Smith Conans over at CL coming up for auction. A very nice #23 and #24 included. Someone is probably letting a collection go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wizardseye311 Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Been a while. Statues look awesome! Picked this up at PalmCon yesterday. Wow + WOW proof really nice stuff is still out there Probably somewhere in the 8.5 to 9.0 range. Some minor discoloration on the right edge, and some very slight wear on the bottom edge keep from grading higher, but yeah, surprisingly well kept for one out in the wild. Especially from a convention where they're being handled so much. Spine is almost flawless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
