This issue is all out action as the Grim Reaper descends upon the kingdom of Erkhara in response to Red Sonja's actions, dangerously destabilizing the realm, and as for Sonja herself? Let's just say those glowing eyes of hers in issue #1 are a clue!
AMANDA CONNER, JIMMY PALMIOTTI and MORITAT continue to reveal an epic which will stand the test of time!
If you thought 'Invincible Red Sonja' was going to be just another walk in the park for the She-Devil with a Sword you are sadly mistaken. Team IRS raises the stakes in big ways with this game-changing fourth issue. With a jaw-dropping cliffhanger, it's everything you could hope for and more in a Red Sonja comic. Read Full Review
Moritat delivers some beautiful visuals throughout the issue. The action is breathtaking and the detailed panel engage the reader with every page. Read Full Review
Sonja has become something more than herself here and her destiny and path, for the moment, is no longer of her choosing. How that will play out when not in battle remains to be seen, but for now she has nothing but battle ahead to keep herself alive and the wizard that has forced bonded them together. This is another solidly dense issue of dialogue and plotting that makes you really settle into it as it's not a light flip-through, but rather a worthy spending of time. And that's not even going on about the gorgeous artwork throughout that really captures something special. Definitely another strong installment. Read Full Review
Dynamite has produced a lot of Red Sonja titles over the years. They have a very solid hit with Invincible Red Sonja. Everyone's taking notice. As of August 19, Dynamite commented that this series has been expanded to ten issues!! Read Full Review
THE INVINCIBLE RED SONJA #4 resolves the mysteries of the thief and how Red Sonja got into her predicament from the issue #1 prologue. The art is improved over the prior issues, but the writing and overall story remain forgettably average. Read Full Review
The Invincible Red Sonja #4 finally takes readers to where Sonja is, in fact, made invincible, but the issue to that point is a messy, chaotic, action-filled run that tries to pull together the various story threads from the previous three issues with mixed success. Read Full Review
Great stuff once again. This is a key issue as it answers a ton of questions and skilfully brings us back to where we started at the beginning of #1. Beautiful art once more, with a trippy dream sequence and some blistering action, and the script is once again on point, although if anything, Sonja sounded a mite TOO archaic this issue. Moritat couples his usual statuesque and muscular Sonja with a terrifying new villain, all crazed eyes and gnashing teeth. We get quite a bit of nudity this time with conveniently-placed wisps of smoke but I gather that's a trademark of Conner and Palmiotti's work, so who am I to complain?
