By Mitra!! You Dogs Are Staring at My Comely Thighs!!

By Mitra, you dogs are staring at my comely thighs!!

One of my all time favorite characters is Red Sonja. I would like to say that I have been a fan since her creation back in the 70s, but in all honesty I didnt get into the character until the mid eighties. By then, she was wearing a blue off the shoulder tunic, thigh high boots, and a wide leather belt (so 80′s, like, fer shure.) So I missed out completely on the whole chainmail bikini thing. Its not that I didnt know it existed, its that it was an incarnation of a previous era foreign to me just like that “Keep on Trucking” picture. So I never really felt any nostalgia for its return.

Fast Forward to the 90s, and the fine folks at Dynamite Entertainment decide to bring her back from the obscurity of the back issues vaults at Marvel (you are doing God’s work gentlemen. Pure and Simple.) Now, the first thing I notice about the first issue, in all its black and white testing-the-waters glory was that the chainmail bikini was back. I immediately flipped to the back of the comic to see if there was an R. Crumb picture that said “Keep On Trucking” while I was at it. Seriously, someone wanted to bring that ludicrous garment back??
