There is ancient legend that is inspiring the magic in the series and various elements. The elements question really would have expanded with a little bit more chance to explore them. As it is, the pacing of the series had to maintain at a certain level and it didn't quite reach a satisfying conclusion, even though the story was very well executed, given its limitations on space and time.

RED SONJA (VOL. 7) #18 brings the fight against Kulan Gath and the volume to a close when Red Sonja dives into a shadow realm to stop the evil wizard. Torunn Grnbekk's script does a serviceable, albeit forgettable, job of wrapping up the major plot threads, and the finale is elevated by Walter Geovani's energetic art. Read Full Review
I thought this arc really lost it's way somewhere in the middle. Though I was somewhat pleased with this ending, the story had taken such a sidetrack and became so convoluted that threads were completely forgotten. She needed to plot the arc better. The battle was not even referenced for two issues. I think she started the battle too early and then it got in her way as Sonja would never run from a fight.
