Notes

The Marada stories originally started as Red Sonja stories but were changed because Marvel was unsure if they had the rights to Red Sonja. More information here: https://www.cbr.com/comic-book-legends-revealed-451/

Reprinted from

  • Epic Illustrated #10— Reprinted fully. Note for clarity due to the reworking of the second part of the story.
  • Epic Illustrated #11— The first page was a recap, and is not reprinted. Pages 2-16 are reprinted fully, while the art from page 17 has been split amongst two pages... The third to last page of the story has four panels, the first two panels are new, and third and fourth panels were originally the first two panels of page 17. The second to last page is completely new. And the last page starts with what was the third panel of page 17, then a new panel, and finishes with what were panels four and five of page 17. The script and word balloons have been shuffled around as well, of course.
  • Epic Illustrated #12— The story has been extended briefly from the original printing, and the script and word balloons reworked. Pages 1-17 are reprinted fully. Panels 1-4 of page 18 are reprinted, then a new panel has been inserted, and the page finishes with panel 5 of page 18. Page 19 is mostly new, but the third panel was the sixth panel of the original page 18. The last, seventh panel of the original page 18 has been omitted.
