Classic Red Sonja Focus Of Digital Sale As New Version Is Released

Today we see the release of Dynamite's newest take on Red Sonja and a new issue #1 by Marguerite Bennett and Aneke. I'm going to review the issue in the morning, but the most noticeable difference is illustrated here by Jay Anacleto.

That's right, the metal bikini that she has worn since her inception back in the 70's is gone. It was a classic look that had fans split on it's meaning. Was it a ridiculous and sexist outfit that would afford no real protection… or was it a statement of the unobtainable woman who is equal to man in every way. I've heard both arguments. Either way it's a look we've seen for years whether drawn by Frank Thorne, Greg Horne, Ed Benes or anyone else.
