Owner's Description

1:1 ratio cover. One of the best things about this 2006 Dynamite run is the number of absolute comic icons they got to do covers - in this case, Romita Sr. While this will never be my favorite cover for any number of reasons, yet it is so cool that Romita did one. And I love having it in my collection. Since I mostly collect sword and sorcery books, this is a rare treat.
The cover itself? I don't care for the way Sonja's body is twisted - it's too much and her feet are too much in line with her toes pointed forward for her to not be horribly off-balance. It just doesn't make her look competent. And then the coloration is boring. Nothing has been done to really make her stand out against the background - and all that needed to be done was some cool colors - maybe a blue/grey rock outcropping? Or better yet, a moss covered one?
Overall - happy to have the book - but no, I did not chose this one from my LCS in '05
