Owner's Description
Limited to 1300 copies. This is the exact same book as the previous listing "Fantastic Realm Edition" - the only difference is in how CGC has labelled the books. Homs is one of my favorite Red Sonja cover artists due to the fantastic use of color. His Sonja is always a very real person and this image is no exception. What I do take exception to is the ridiculousness of a shield and what looks like a pole-axe in the same hand - and her off-hand. That's a Conan level of strength, just to hold those upright. And while I appreciate that Sonja is a fiercer, stronger fighter than I ever was, the wrist just cannot support that. On the other hand, or more specifically in the other hand, Sonja has a monster axe. And I love how choked up on the handle her grip is - very believable. Sonja's hair is often a focus of mine - I do some portraiture myself, and I love painting hair - and her hair in this image is too fabulous. LOVE IT.
Overall? Well, my LCS didn't get a copy of this book when it came out - but if it had I might have even picked it over the Mack virgin cover that I did pick up.
