No longer the Queen of the Nosferatu, Vampirella is free to begin a new chapter in her life—as a field agent for The Kabal, a covert supernatural organization comprised of monsters that polices their own kind in order to maintain balance between humanity and the world of the occult. Her first mission is to rescue a fellow Kabal agent kidnapped by a group of mad scientists calling themselves the Prometheus Society, who demand the release of their fellow member, Dr. Faustus. But first she must coerce a former field agent, Lazarus the Walking Dead Man, into returning to the Kabal before going toe-to-toe with the likes of Dr. Moreau, Dr. Caligari, Dr. John Dee, and a certain Dr. Frankenstein. Let the Monster Rally begin!

Jen Fellows is a housewife with two kids, a devoted husband, a beautiful suburban home, two cars, a plasma TV, a Mk. 153 SMAW Launcher, an AK47, ten pounds of C4, a large number of grenades, several hundred rounds of hollow-point ammunition, a great big knife…Jen Fellows was also Jennifer Blood, a vengeance-fuelled vigilante taking brutal revenge on the five men who destroyed her parents. But now that she’s finished off the last of them, her mission is over at last. All’s well that ends well? In a word… no. It turns out you can’t murder the five heads of a crime family – plus various assorted bodyguards, associates, ninja schoolgirl assassins, etc. – without any consequences. There are leftover weapons to dispose of, nosy neighbours who might know a little too much, kids getting too curious about the hidden armory in the basement, detectives picking up all the clues you forgot you dropped… and a consortium of rich and powerful people, with private armies of highly trained mercenaries at their command, who want a little revenge of their own.
