Vampirella Hunts Ancient Evil in the Deep South

Posted on by

By popular demand, Dynamite Entertainment is proud to expand their beloved Vampirella line with a new five-part miniseries, entitled Vampirella: Southern Gothic.  A tale of dark magic and mystery set against a Mississippi backdrop, the series features the writing talent of Nate Cosby and illustrations by Jose Luis.  The first issue will hit store shelves in August 2013, available in two cover editions: an art edition by Johnny Desjardins, and Subscription-Only photo variant featuring model Kitana Baker.

In Vampirella: Southern Gothic #1, the industry’s most iconic horror heroine may not be prepared — even after a lifetime of fighting vampires, aliens, magicians, and monsters — for the evil that lurks on the shores of the Mississippi.  As the story begins, Vampirella confronts a demon whose blue blade leaves her with a glowing, mystical wound.  Heading to the Deep South to recover, she is reunited with an old flame… and finds herself drawn into a murder mystery thick with old time religion and blood, blood, blood.

While the Southern Gothic series stands on its own, completely accessible to new readers, Cosby assures that the tale will fit faithfully into the overall Vampirella mythos, as pioneered by many of the industry’s top talent.

Vampirella: Southern Gothic #1 is solicited in the Diamond June Previews catalog for release in August.
