Leading a Multiversal Team of Sonja’s to Feed the Pits of Hell
October 21, Mt. Laurel, NJ: Welcome to Hell… Sonja. The fan-favorite breakout star of the mythos boundary-blasting Sonjaversal is breaking out in a fiery hot new title ready to warm up fans this winter!
She’s the Queen of Damnation, lording over the fire-scorched pits of eternal hunger and suffering. But Hell Sonja has had enough of all this boring evil. She’s binding together lost souls, other Red Sonja’s of the multiverse, and will scour time and space to find the most wicked to feed to her endless realm’s churning maw. For those desperate enough and beset by evil, when no one else can help, perhaps Hell Sonja will be their surprising savior!
Writer Christopher Hastings (Unbelievable Gwenpool, Deadpool) and artist Pasquale Qualano (Dejah Thoris) reunite to chronicle the tales of the latest breakout star in the Red Sonja mythos. She’s now set up a multiversal bounty hunting operation, assembling teams of Sonja’s to accost the most dangerous villains across the multiverse. Each issue will feature a new world and villain to be taken on. In addition to the title-star, the series also includes Blue Sonja, Moon Sonja, Gold Sonja, and of course the beloved classic Red Sonja.
“It’s the A-Team meets Hellraiser across a span of wildly different fantasy and sci-fi worlds, care of an elite squad of multiversal Red Sonja alternates,” said writer Christopher Hastings. “Easily the most metal thing I’ve ever worked on.”
Beyond the beautiful, action-packed interiors by Qualano, colorist Kike J. Diaz, the series is fronted by a talented team of cover artists. Dynamite depictions of demons would be incomplete without the incomparable Lucio Parrillo. Other fan-favorites answering Hell Sonja’s call include Jae Lee, Junggeun Yoon, and Joseph Michael Linsner. Last but certainly not least, fan-favorite Gracie the Cosplay Lass has outdone herself with a masterfully crafted cosplay and photoshoot of the new character – which she prepared before this series was even in development! Artists and collectors should also take note of the unique fiery-red sketch cover for the first issue, offering the opportunity for unique sketches.
HELL SONJA #1 is solicited in Diamond Comic Distributors’ November 2021 Previews catalog, the premier source of merchandise for the comic book specialty market, and slated for release in January 2022. Comic book fans are encouraged to preorder copies of the issue with their local comic book retailers.
