The She-Devil with a Sword is facing the dangerous and destructive Martians from Mars Attacks! in the Dynamite crossover series, Red Sonja Attacks Mars. Combining retro science fiction with swords and sorcery, the comic is written by Jay Stephens (Dwellings) with art by Fran Strukan.

“Sonja is serving out a life-debt when she discovers a sinister prophecy of cosmic foulness from beyond the stars,” the description reads. “To stop the imminent destruction of the whole world and her beloved Hyrkania, she must trek from the deserts in the south all the way to the northern shores of the Vilayet Sea. There she will go toe to toe with the big-headed insidious invaders back once more from Mars. Along the way she will face trials too, serpent-men, metamorlocks, and ancient monster-gods in her path.”

The series features covers by Joseph Michael Linsner, Jae Lee, and Greg Land. In homage to the Mars Attacks! trading card roots, each cardstock variant cover will be polybagged with exclusive collectible cards featuring the cover without the trade dress.

“I’m having such a blast! It feels like you could see me drooling over my Norman Saunders (the original Mars Attacks! card creator) art book, which I do more often than would be considered sane,” Stephens said. “Campy, horrifying, mid-century, and notorious does seem to be my vibe. I’m always striving for that reimagined nostalgia… a sort of irreverent reverence for the things that haunted me as a kid.”

Red Sonja Attacks Mars #1 is solicited in Diamond Comic Distributors’ January 2025 PREVIEWS catalog.
