Beautiful, scantily-clad young women are being held captive in a castle in an otherworldly place by loincloth-sporting V’Ark, Master of the Nightmare Realm; they have been imprisoned for the purpose of satisfying his every need. Enter Ariel Chylde-a.k.a. Darkchylde, part scantily-clad young woman and part demon, she finds herself in the Nightmare Realm in someone else’s dream and doesn’t know why. Fortunately, gun-for-hire Painkiller Jane’s dreams draw her into the same world, and Jane knows just what to do: kick some serious booty and free the slave-girls.

This entertaining one-shot from Event Comics is written by Brian Augustyn (Flash, X-O Manowar) and drawn by J.G. Jones (Black Widow). It’s well worth the price of admission.
