It's been a long, hard road, fraught with danger every step of the way, but at last Sonja has reached the waters that lie before the dead city of legend. As she steps into what seems like a vision of paradise, it appears as though the fiery warrior has finally succeeded in her quest - but as the She-Devil knows all too well, appearances can be deceiving!
Celebrated scribe STEVE NILES and acclaimed artist ALESSANDRO AMORUSO pull out all the stops for this final chapter of Red Sonja: Empire of the Damned - and the results are opulently adorned with covers from JOSHUA MIDDLETON, JOSEPH MICHAEL LINSNER, CELINA, and cosplay by RACHEL HOLL more
In spite of its shortcomings, Empire of the Damned remains fun...and the final issue continues to develop Sonjas grace and beauty in another enjoyable outing the continues the legend. Some of Amorusos close-ups feel particularly intense here and there as the action moves forward to the inevitable conclusion. Its been a fun series that has filled nearly every page of its five-issue run quite well. In the long run it might not be terribly memorable, but its always fun to follow Sonja on another adventure as she continues to carver her way through danger. Read Full Review
