đ Additional Insights
Red Thorn draws heavily from Scottish mythology and injects it into a modern urban setting. The series explores themes of identity, divine rebellion, and the blurred line between creation and destruction. With strong female leads and richly layered lore, the story appeals to fans of Neil Gaiman’s The Sandman and Mike Carey’s Lucifer.
In Issue #6, the mythic and the mortal collide with earth-shaking consequences. This issue doesn’t just conclude an arc—it redefines the landscape of this magical world.
