- Title: Red Sonja #2
- Comic Vine: link
- Writers: Mirka Andolfo, Luca Blengino
- Artist: Giuseppe Cafaro
In Part 2 of “Mother,” a bruised and battered Sonja awakes on a farm in Brythunia and tended to by a lumberjack and carpenter named Samosh, who took the unconscious Sonja and the young Sitha in. There’s more humor than action in Red Sonja #2 which feels very much like a middle issue of a larger story. Much of the issue takes place around the recovering Sonja and her respite before completing her duty to deliver her charge.
Sitha isn’t pleased to leave the comforts of Samosh’s home, nor to see Sonja move on after completing the job she was paid for. However, the story does set-up an uneasiness for Sonja as she returns only to discover the girl gone and warlocks and necromancers in her way likely leading to a more action-packed third issue.
