Known as the "She-Devil with a Sword," Red Sonja is the greatest swordswoman of the Hyborean Age and more than a match for any man in combat. First appearing in Marvel Comics in 1973, Red Sonja has become the archetypal example of the strikingly beautiful warrior woman clad in revealing bikini-like armor.
Wondering the same thing, I picked up the new Gail Simone Red Sonja. It's definitely worth it! This is my first exposure to the character, and I'm loving her. I always dismissed Red Sonja as a campy softcore porn version of Conan, but I've certainly been proven wrong.
There's a lot of depth to Red Sonja's character, and I find her story very compelling. I'll definitely keep picking up her title.
