Red Sonja #16

As both Kulan Garth and Erlick separately search for her leaving valleys of bodies in their wake, Red Sonja heads through the wetlands into the mountains with Unnar, and with the warrior Atali on her heels. Despite death taking a grip on her, Sonja continues along fighting her own visions (which she discovers the ability to alter), Kulan Garth’s shadows, and giant monsters standing in the way of her path to the Afterworld.

Most of the premiere sticks with Wim giving us the basic dreamer/screwup son disappointing his father (Tunde Adebimpe) who isn’t a bad guy but far from a great dad.
