QUEEN SONJA #2 http://www.dynamiteentertainment.com/htmlfiles/viewProduct.html?PRO=C725130129758 Know also, O prince, that in the selfsame days that the Cimmerian did stalk the Hyborian Kingdoms, one of the few swords worthy to cross with his was that of Red Sonja, warrior-woman out of majestic Hyrkania. Forced to flee her homeland because she spurned the advances of a king and slew him instead, she rode west across the Turanian steppes and into the shadowed mists of legendry." -- -The Nemedian Chronicles The story of Sonja's march to the throne continues as writer Joshua Ortega and artist Mel Rubi weave an incredible tale of intrigue and power in the ancient lands of Hyboria!

Praise for the recently released LONE RANGER #17: "If you haven't checked out Dynamite's take on The Lone Ranger before, this is great starting point. Brett Matthews continues to build a solid interpretation of the world and characters, and Sergio Cariello's dynamic twist on the Kubert school keeps things rocketing along. I've been really enjoying this book since its debut, and I don't expect to stop any time soon." (BestShots@Newsarama.com)

ASK DYNAMITE:

DOUG WRITES: "Greetings from sunny (yeah ok) old England. I just wanna say I'm a big fan of both The Boys and Project Superpowers especially the current Meet The Bad Guys series. This might sound like a bit of a moan but I was really disappointed with PSP2 #3. The main reason is that Truth and Dare were set up perfectly to be big characters in the story but why on earth was Truth killed off before we could find out what he knew about the Devil? Maybe Alex could answer it, haha.

But the Bad Guys series is moving nicely and I'm hoping we see more of the Revolutionary and The Ghost in future PSP issues. Although some explanation as to where the Scarlet Sisters came from would be nice as for them to just turn up in PSP #4 is a bit odd. As there has been no prior mention to them I don't understand why they can suddenly be such an opposing force to Captain Future (Zeus).

P.S. I cant wait for the future Boys origin stories especially Butchers. I'm hoping for lots gore and a full on English assault language wise."

Wow, lot to get to here, so let's hit it:

• Sorry we killed The Truth, but Alex made us and we have a plan. Trust us.
• Look for more from the Revolutionary and The Ghost in 2010.
• The Sisters explain their plan more fully in issue #5, keep reading!
• Butcher's story is so big, he's gonna get his own mini, prolly not until 2011.

DUELING REVIEWS: ZORRO #17
http://www.majorspoilers.com/archives/27950.htm/

FIRST LOOK: "ROBOCOP" #1 VARIANT
http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=23792

THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY #5 (ComicBookResources.com): "Most comics that try and tell new stories with film characters fail because they can't bring something new to the table while also remaining true to the source material. Chuck Dixon and Esteve Polls manage to pull it off in "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly" #5 by crafting an entertaining, original story that uses key elements of the character and his world. If you're a fan of the films, this comic is definitely worth a look."

THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY #5 (MajorSpoilers.com): "Esteve Polls also delivers excellent work here. He keeps up the look of the previous issues and has some great panel layouts. I enjoyed looking at his art, and thought it really fit with the story. It is bare and dusty, and looks like the West should. The clothing fits, the hardware is era correct, and you feel as if you are in the period."

BLACKBEARD, LEGEND OF THE PYRATE KING #2 (MajorSpoilers.com):"A high quality adventure that I look forward to each month, 4 out of 5 stars!"
