Talking to Witchblade/Red Sonja writer Doug Wagner, it's clear he knows he's working against a template, here. The Top Cow/Dynamite crossover is bucking against decades of "they fight, then they team up" cross-company stories, and he's looking to do something a little different with his leads, pitting them against a common threat across their respective eras without falling into storytelling traps that it would be so easy to write his way into.

Here's the synopsis:

Red Sonja, the She-Devil with a Sword, pursues a cannibalistic monstrosity into the heart of a dead, black mountain. Meanwhile, Sara Pezzini, modern day bearer of the Witchblade and NYPD Detective, investigates the ghastly death of a Catholic Priest.
