2014 is definitely a great time to be a high fantasy fan. Fantasy of all kinds continues to be in vogue in 2014, and that means publishers are going to pull out all the stops running some new fantasy titles to capitalize on this wave of interest. Thankfully for us comic book fans that means some great characters can finally get the attention they deserve! One such character more than deserving of her comeback is Red Sonja.
