ALIENS Vampirella #1

[pulphero]

I wasn't expecting much from this, but Corrina Bechko's story is actually pretty decent (I liked her Planet of the Apes for BOOM, too). It doesn't feel much like a Vampirella story, but then being set in the future on Mars, I don't suppose it could. It seems to fit right in with the feel of many of the earlier stand-alone ALIENS miniseries that Dark Horse has published, though nothing specific to tie it into any of them. The artwork does the job of telling the story well enough I guess, but it's pretty basic and kind of bland and ho-hum. Fair warning, Vampi doesn't wear her costume in this issue, either.

. . . Fair warning, Vampi doesn't wear her costume in this issue, either.

Does she wear more or less than usual?

Does she wear more or less than usual?

She's naked



underneath her spacesuit.

















...and then she's just wearing whatever kind of one-piece coverall they wear on Marsbases in the near-future.

Yeah, thought it was a pretty decent first issue. I'll be collecting the series and will be interested to see how the vampires fit in.

Vampirella is her costume.
