Osric Chau, known as Kevin Tran to Supernatural fans, makes his way from the TV screen to the comic book realm. His likeness will be used in an upcoming issue of Gail Simone's Red Sonja, from Dynamite Entertainment.
As reported here, Simone brought critical acclaim to the medieval/fantasy series. As the feisty heroine, The She-Devil with a Sword fought her way and lived through numerous war at sea and land. Now she meets her latest opponent who may be just as good with a blade as she is.
From her official Tumblr, the Birds of Prey scribe shared a sneak preview of the upcoming issue. Mind you, the picture has just been finished being illustrated in black inks by artist Walter Geovani. Towards the final panels, Chau shows up with long hair and beard.
The Red Sonja writer teases, "Here is a sneak peak at the uncolored, unlettered art for Red Sonja #10, featuring guest star Osric Chau as the greatest swordsman in the entire world!"
Simone adds, "This issue is a ton of fun, guys. I hope you pick it up. Thank you to the wonderful Osric for allowing us to put him in the book!"
