Following on from last year’s one-shot special, Dynamite Entertainment has announced that writer David Avallone will team with artist Edson Novaes for another pulp adventure for Red Sonja Noir this summer with The Plunder & The Princess.
“Last year’s Red Sonja Noir: The Crimson Calypso was a fun experiment in genre-mash-up, placing the She-Devil with a Sword in a classic detective story… which some eagle-eyed fans easily spotted,” said writer David Avallone. “I had a lot of fun with it, and Dynamite must have been satisfied because they asked for a second issue. This one is another fun riff (on a more obscure story this time), and Edson did a terrific job bringing the complicated tale to life!”
In Red Sonja Noir: The Plunder & The Princess, “Red Sonja travels to an exclusive wedding on the island of Zaralina, an enclave for the rich and wealthy merchant class. She’s not a mere guest, but has been hired for her prowess in protection. Events take a harrowing turn for the dark and nefarious when an army of masked bandits, a powerful wizard, and a massive fearsome dragon crash the reception!”
