  • title: Red Sonja: Altered States (2015)

  • cover: A cover
  • commentary: Altered States included four one-shots, each one featuring a Dynamite hero. In addition to Red Sonja, there were one-shots dedicated to Vampirella (of course), as well as Doc Savage and The Shadow. Billy Tan drew covers for all four issues.

9

  • title: Conan / Red Sonja (2015)
  • publisher: Dark Horse / Dynamite
  • cover artist: Dan Panosian
  • writer: Gail Simone
  • artist: Jim Zub
  • issue: #2 of 4
  • release date: February, 2015
  • cover: A cover
  • commentary: In 2015, Dynamite and Dark Horse partnered for two four-issue cross-over arcs titled Conan / Red Sonja and Red Sonja / Conan. Conan was licensed to Dark Horse at the time. Dark Horse does not engage in the numerous cover variants as Dynamite does. As such, Dan Panosian was the only artist to create covers for Conan / Red Sonja. He created one cover for each issue. Amazingly, it was not until this sixty-second gallery that we feature a cover from this series. To make up for the delay, we show two Conan / Red Sonja covers by Panosian. (See below.)

  • commentary: This is another cover by Dan Panosian to Conan / Red Sonja. We have previously featured only one other cover by Panosian (but it's a good one).
