A Red Sonja Cover Gallery IX:
Snow

This is the ninth installment in our Red Sonja themed cover galleries, continuing from the first gallery. Below, we present thirty selected covers from various comic books, which feature Red Sonja in snow. The number of covers featuring Red Sonja in a snow-covered landscape are so numerous that we opted to triple this gallery from the usual ten covers sufficient to describe other themes.
