I gotta say, I'm not sure who I would predict winning this match up. Hex might have an advantage at longer ranges, but if he gets into close combat, Sonja would make short work of the gunslinger. Am I crazy to hope that this battle might ultimately end up as a romance? Could these two warriors tame each other's hearts?
Out of curiosity, have you considered making a crossover between two western heroes Rawhide Kid and Jonah Hex?
ReplyDeleteGiven how little skin Red Sonja's "armor" actually covers, her only hope would be to ambush Hex and run him through before he could draw one or both of his guns.
ReplyDeleteAlso, what's she doing with a meat cleaver?
Yep, there be plenty of f@#&+%g and fighting between these two, and plenty of drinking too.
ReplyDeleteGreat cover again.
Actually, I can see a team-up between these two occurring in a real-world comic. There's already ample precedent! Thor meeting Conan in a Silver Age issue of Marvel's WHAT IF...comics. MaryJane Watson having been a temporary host body for Red Sonja's essence in the now-classic MTU debut of Kulan Gath. And, of course, DC's gunslinging bounty huntress Cinnamon turning out to have been a pre-incarnation of the Golden Age Hawkgirl! So, why couldn't an actual intercompany crossover between these two split the difference?
ReplyDeleteI.e., having Jonah Hex discover that Red Sonja is a pre-incarnation of Cinnamon?
I could see these two doing the old trick of fighting at the start, but then teaming up against the real bad guy (probably the Master, from Doctor Who).
ReplyDeleteI imagine Hex would win since he has guns.
ReplyDeleteI've read debates on whether Conan the Barbarian could take Solomon Kane. I think Kane would have just pulled a gun and blown his head off.

ReplyDeleteThat's assuming Conan was too close in to avoid being hit by Kane's Elizabethan-era single shooter.
P.S.---In greater likelihood, Conan would just throw a well-aimed dagger and...Fare thee well, Kane!
