- Title: Red Sonja #15
- Comic Vine: link

Over the years Red Sonja has been several things. As Red Sonja #15 opens she is both revered as Goddess and an imprisoned captive as the war between the living and the dead continues to rage. By the end of the issue Sonja’s captivity won’t be a problem, thanks in part to her going all stabby-stabby and killing the man who had planned to sacrifice her on an altar to enhance his power, and thanks in part to the arrival of the army of the dead hunting her and adding to its number with every slain warrior who crosses its path.
After missing the last couple of issues, returning to this title I was a little surprised to see this arc still going. Although caged at the start, Sonja isn’t prisoner for long and quickly puts an end to someone using her for their own gains. However, the comic ends on a cliffhanger with the She Devil with a Sword poisoned and her life once again in peril (although, as always, I’d bet on Sonja to survive).
