Aug 05, 2026Whether you’re a fan of Chuck Brown or just love the titular heroines, this is a prime example of how single-issue crossovers should be done. Let alone crossovers between these two. After having put it down, I already want to give it another read. Brown and crew really worked together and made this a fun experience, albeit a short one that could’ve just as easily made for a fantastic series. Read Full Review

You Don't Read Comics - Russ Bickerstaff
Aug 06, 2026The issue doesn’t read like a single story so much as it is a pitch for a much longer series with this particular creative team that could have been SO much more satisfying than the compressed story that’s rushed between the covers of this particular issue. This particular iteration of Sonja and this particular iteration of Ella are really enjoyable together. There’s real magic in the specific aesthetics of the series and the general energy that Brown brings to the story. Rushed as it is, it’s not nearly coherent enough to make the kind of impression it might have done as a longer series. Read Full Review

Plot
Vampirella, Red Sonja, and Dyna Mite were brought against their will to Earth-0001, where a city called Red City exists, a place where humans and supernatural beings coexist. Dracula's plan was to make Red Sonja and Vampirella his brides, but Vampirella defeats him. However, the curse that brought them to this place remains unbroken.
Five years later, Dyna Mite discovers the reason why the curse hasn't been broken, while Red Sonja discovers a way to cure the vampires turned by Dracula. Meanwhile, Vampirella lives a life of sexual freedom and pleasure in exchange for a little blood.
This excellent one-shot highlights the dynamic between these two heroines, so unequal yet complementary.
