Legends of Red Sonja #2 is here!

Whee! This issue contains my story, The Undefeated. Some of you might remember that Red Sonja’s history included some not-so-awesome aspects, such as: she had to be defeated before she could sleep with anyone. So I took that and played with it a bit, and threw in an arrogant barbarian who has every intention of defeating her.

But really, the big news here is: my story is in a comic with a story by TAMORA PIERCE. It’s like all of my fangirl dreams come true in one awesome issue.

About this storyline: My mother left a voicemail for me last night, saying that she was buying Issue #2, but is that the whole story? And if my own mother is confused about what is happening, I’m guessing that many others will be, too.

My story is part of a larger story arc within a 5-issue mini-series. The story started in Issue #1, when the Gray Riders are sent out to assassinate Sonja. Along the way, they encounter people who have met her … and tell their own stories about Sonja.

Altogether, it’s really fabulous, and I’ve loved all of the stories that I’ve read. This WILL be eventually collected in a graphic novel, but that’s months away. Still, for those of you who don’t read floppies, that’s another option. It’s also available in digital format (which is how I read my comics these days.) Anyway, here’s the info:
