Red Sonja is fully made to understand that her victory over Kulan Gath not only led to the invasion of her world by a whole new kind of evil. but may cause time itself to end... much to the delight of the goddess of death, Mistress Hel. Only Sonja can set things right -- but what she needs to do so will cost her a bargain with Lady Demon, as well as a personal quest her ego doesn't want to accept. Thankfully she has backup in the form of the half-vampire, Chastity -- and a good thing, too. To fix the path of fate, Sonja will need all the help she can get! The AGE OF CHAOS continues here!

    Though it's a little more roundabout than I care for, it does finally get to what needs doing and we'll see how the dynamic between Sonja and Lady Demon will unfold properly next. There isn't an exposition dump here but we do get a good bit brought down so that we're all on the same page, which is key for Sonja since she had no idea her last dealing with Kulan Gath would have such far-reaching ramifications. Once again, Jonathan Lau puts in a fantastic looking book in capturing the details of all the distinctive characters in bringing them to life while also engaging with some strong panel design that really gives the whole thins some great flow and energy. I'm still not fully on board, not being a Chaos fan, but I'm curious to see where it's all going to go. Read Full Review

    Sequential Planet - Alexander Cole Feb 24, 2020

    This is clearly meant to be a dumb fun series but this issue is bogged down by constant and lazy exposition that just kills the experience. The brief moments of action and humour we get are decent enough and the artwork is outstanding but it's not enough to make up for the tedious writing and minimal character work in this issue.

    Though not an original idea, the work is so crisp and beautiful i can't help but enjoy it. Lady Hel and Purgatori are greatly captured, perfectly with a blade, at times.
