Review: Vampblade #9

vampblade_issuenumber9_covere_solicitNow that Katie’s figured out she can control the appearance of the Vampblade costume, its time for an all new look inspired by one of her favorite comic books! She’s still got two blades and a thirst for TSD’s (translucent space d!@#s – aka space vampires), but now she’s rockin’ a crazy mercenary vibe too!! Features 3 regular and risqué variants showcasing the all new Vampblade costume!!

The humorous, violent, parody that is Vampblade continues. The issue brings in a new costume and a few more fourth wall breaks as things begin in what is the third story arc of this series. This issue gets to the heart of the theTSDs, as Katie tries to balance her real life and her life as Vampblade.

I will admit, I like the various costume she tries on. While the designs feel like they’re well known, they each have that Vampblade twist. Yet more TSDs appear in various forms, and shapes which also provides some variation to the design seen within. That includes a few twisted and grotesque looking creatures.

Vampblade continues to entertain with a mix of humor, action, and mixing things up.
