Modern dating is rough.

No one likes being on the apps, but it’s not much easier meeting people IRL. Especially when they might turn you into a vampire without warning.

This is exactly what happened to Syd. She was only trying to get over her toxic ex—whom she may still drunkenly text from time to time—not looking to have her life totally changed. She thought finding the right guy before was hard, but now she has an unquenchable thirst for blood. Her dating pool has suddenly become her food chain!

Meanwhile, Izzy has been trying to make her dreams a reality in the Big Apple, though right now she’s part of the gig economy working as a rideshare driver. When Syd ends up in the back of Izzy’s car, there is an instant connection. Is this love at first sight, or will it all end with one bite?

Vault announces Corin Howll’s Lilith: Blood & Burlesque

Posted on by

Vault has announced the return of Corin Howell’s smash-hit sapphic horror series, Lilith, with Lilith: Blood & Burlesque. The brand new comic book series will see Howell joined by colorist Warnia Sahadewa and letterer Haley Rose-Lyon to bring back the beloved characters Lilith and Penny as they continue their journey to bring Lilith home.

The character Lilith, created by Howell, began as a genuine social media phenomenon. Howell’s Lilith illustrations have garnered millions of likes on Howell’s social platforms, making Lilith one of the most popular original illustrated characters on social media. Then in 2024, Howell & Vault partnered to publish a Lilith comic book series that became an immediate critical darling and commercial hit with multiple sell outs and new printings.

Lilith is an immortal who’s been banished from her home, a dimensional plane suspiciously similar to mankind’s idea of hell. She’s been posing as a model on Earth while secretly preying on humans. That is, until she runs into Penelope, a sweet bookstore owner with a tome that might hold the secret to returning Lilith to her home dimension.

Lilith: Blood & Burlesque #1 will hit comic book store shelves everywhere this October. The debut issue will feature a phenomenal line of variant covers by some of the most beloved artists in the world, including Mirka Andolfo, Suspiria, Luana Vecchio, Chloe, Garth Graham, and more.

Everyone’s favorite man-eating demon is back! Penny’s bookstore is still a mess after the monster attack. Much to Lilith’s dismay, Michael proposes a great idea: Why not make a sexy calendar to raise funds to pay for the shop repairs? Meanwhile, Lilith and Penny start making good progress on translating the book that could help Lilith get back home. But what will Penelope think if she learns Lilith’s true motive—and true nature? Seems like Lilith is bound to find out when a sinister and sexy pair from her past emerges at a burlesque show.

Sean Gordon Murphy hits the gas with The Last Driver

Posted on by

Superstar artist and longtime gearhead Sean Gordon Murphy will get behind the wheel to write and draw the highly anticipated series, The Last Driver. This all-new, landscape format, ongoing series will hit the gas in August and be published by Image Comics.

This pedal-to-the-metal, action-packed launch will also feature engine-revving variant covers by such top gear artists as Corin Howell, Matteo Scalera, and Ryan Ottley, as well as additional variants by Murphy himself and a blank sketch variant.

As technology in America advanced, cities began creating the GRID: a robotic transportation system that not only made cars obsolete, it made them illegal. But an outlaw named “Clutch” has no choice but to get behind the wheel one more time. What starts out as a race to save his granddaughter’s life quickly turns into a rebellion against technology, fascism, and the future of a divided America.

The Last Driver #1 will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, August 19.

Vault Comics has announced Corin Howell’s Lilith will return in 2026 with an Ongoing Series

Posted on by

Vault Comics has announced that Corin Howell’s smash-hit sapphic horror comic book series, Lilith, will return as an ongoing series in 2026. 

In the forthcoming second arc of the Lilith series, Penny’s bookstore is still a mess after the monster attack. Much to Lilith’s dismay, Michael proposes a great idea. Why not make a sexy calendar to raise funds to pay for the shop repairs? As Lilith, Michael, Penny, and Benny get to work, the four grow even closer. Lilith and Penny start making good progress on translating the book that could help get Lilith home. But what will Penelope think if she learns Lilith’s true motive—and true nature? Seems like Lilith is bound to find out when a sinister and sexy pair from her past emerges at a burlesque show.

Lilith, created by Howell, began as a genuine social media phenomenon. Howell’s Lilith illustrations have garnered millions of likes on Howell’s social platforms, making Lilith one of the most popular original illustrated characters on social media. Then in 2024, Howell & Vault partnered to publish a Lilith comic book series that became an immediate critical darling and commercial hit with multiple sell outs and new printings.

That is, until she runs into Penelope, a sweet bookstore owner with a tome that might hold the secret to returning Lilith to her home dimension. 

More details about the next arc of Lilith will be revealed soon, and fans can expect to see Lilith’s triumphant return to  store shelves in 2026. In the meantime, readers can purchase the Lilith Volume 1 trade paperback at comic and book stores everywhere this October.

Vault announces Barbaric: The Black Knight with a new Barbaric Arc to Follow

Posted on by

Vault Comics has announced the long-awaited return of the smash-hit comic Barbaric, with a brand new one-shot, Barbaric: The Black Knight, written by Barbaric co-creator Michael Moreci, drawn by Guilherme Balbi, colored by Fabi Marques, lettered by Jim Campbell, and designed by Tim Daniel. Then in December 2025, Barbaric will return for its fifth full arc with artist and co-creator Nathan Gooden returning to art duties.     

Barbaric: The Black Knight is an over-length one-shot featuring Flail, the talking…well, Flail! Deadheart, Serra, and Ka return after their (mis)adventures in Queen of Swords to defeat the evil witch Doxon once and for all. Too bad a familiar face…on a spiked ball at the end of a vicious weapon wielded by an ancient knight…has other plans. Someone isn’t making it out of this one-shot in one piece, so you should probably read it—IF you want to keep calling yourself a Barbaric fan.

Barbaric: The Black Knight will hit store shelves this October and will feature incredible variant covers by fan favorite artists like Nathan Gooden, Luana Vecchio, Corin Howell, and more.
