Red Sonja is a legendary warrior of the Hyborian Age, instantly recognizable by her crimson hair, chainmail armor, and unmatched skill with the sword. Created by Roy Thomas and Barry Windsor-Smith and inspired by Robert E. Howard’s Red Sonya of Rogatino, Red Sonja has become one of the most enduring female icons in sword-and-sorcery fiction.
