Vampirella Shines in Seventh Paperback Archive!
| 
May 21, Mt. Laurel, NJ: Dynamite Entertainment announces another anticipated volume in the ongoing paperback editions of the complete Vampirella Archives compiling the character's original era, as well as countless classic anthology tales.
This shining seventh volume reprints issues #43-49 of the Vampirella magazine originally released by Warren Publishing. These stories were originally released from summer 1975 through spring 1976.
These seven books can be picked up and enjoyed in any order by readers, all offering a batch of exciting stories featuring horror, science fiction, fantasy, and more, as well as the ongoing epics of the Daughter of Drakulon. The preceding sixth entry included different visions of Vampi by artists Leopold Sanchez, Jose Ortiz, and the ending of writer Flaxman Lowe's run.
For this volume deep into the series, writer Bill DuBay takes over as the primary architect of Vampirella's tales. Fans get another nice mix on the art side, with not only definitive illustrator of the era Jose Gonzalez, but also Gonzalo Mayo, Zesar Lopez, and a massive key issue with #49 featuring the first appearance of the Blood Red Queen of Hearts drawn by Esteban Maroto. The all-Vampi issue of #46 includes a retold origin.
Other creators in these issues include Len Wein, Luis Garcia, Ramon Torrents, Fernando Fernandez, Gerry Boudreau, Rafael Auraleon, Jose Ortiz, Isidro Mones, and more.
The highlight of the epic eighth book following this one will be the crossover epic in issue #50 featuring Vampirella, Pantha, Fleur, and even a special cameo by The Spirit. While issue #54 features an epic 42-page Vampirella tale, one of the largest from the Warren era.
