2026 is almost here, and Dynamite Entertainment is celebrating the turn of the calendar with the She-Devil with a Sword. This December, fans can dive into the Red Sonja New Year’s Special, a chilling new tale from superstar creator Dan Panosian and artist Valeria Burzo.
Fresh off her 50+ years of sword-swinging adventures, Red Sonja is summoned to a remote mountain village under the blood-red glow of the moon. But this isn’t just another mercenary job—Sonja finds herself entangled in a deadly web of deception, sacrifice, and merciless enemies. Her path is anything but straightforward, as she first clashes with a colossal snow panther and its hunting pack, only to be upstaged by towering, terrifying ice giants.
Armed with her blade, wits, and battle-hardened instincts, Sonja faces her deadliest winter yet. Can she turn predator against predator before the cold night ends in blood?
The special marks Panosian’s return to the Hyborean Age after his acclaimed Savage Red Sonja run, now collected in graphic novel form. He’s joined by Burzo, known for her atmospheric work on Castle Full of Blackbirds and Hunt for the Skinwalker, to bring icy landscapes and monstrous foes to life.
In addition to the 28-page story, fans can look forward to four collectible covers: Joseph Michael Linsner, Shannon Maer, and cosplayer Ani-Mia each contribute stunning artwork, while a mystery blind bag variant delivers a surprise fourth option. Each blind bag contains two exclusive editions, with 70% of them featuring the mysterious fourth cover in its trade dress form, while others may reveal black-and-white or virgin variants of the main designs.
Perfect for the season, the Red Sonja New Year’s Special is both a brutal survival tale and a celebration of Sonja’s enduring legacy as one of comics’ fiercest icons.
On sale this December from Dynamite.
