Owner's Description

1:50 ratio Neal Adams cover. While it isn't difficult to get a Red Sonja story that Neal Adams worked on, there are very few covers he worked on - I mean, maybe he worked on Conan the Barbarian 44 as part of Crusty Bunkers - but most of his RS work was in Savage Sword of Conan and he didn't do any of those Red Sonja covers. So, this is pretty much it. Dynamite should have him do another (EDIT - too late now). Anyway - classic Neal - coy, but dangerous. Super detailed swords. I don't know about the huge borders on the sides - but who knows what kind of decision was made at the time. Feels forced to me. Overall - I like it.

EDIT: Well, I understand the huge borders on the sides now. This was originally printed in Kull and the Barbarians #1 as part of this weird set of panels like pin-ups? I don't get it. The overall image in K&B isn't that good, and the Sonja image isn't bad - but there wasn't something better?
