Critically acclaimed European artist ERGÜN GÜNDÜZ rejoins legendary writer CHRISTOPHER PRIEST for an expanded reimagining of Forrest J Ackerman’s classic origin story in Vampirella: Year One, collecting all six issues of the original series. With framing sequences set in the present day illustrated by GIOVANNI TIMPANO, the story explores the exotic world of Drakulon, the pressures that caused Vampirella to leave, and her first days on Earth, beginning with the day of the Apollo moon landing in 1969. Lost, alone, unable to speak or read our language, Vampirella makes her first friends (Pantha, Pendragon) and runs afoul of new enemies in this multifaceted period piece that revisits the turbulent world of the original 1970s Warren stories!
