Comic Book Preview – Altered States: Purgatori Grindhouse

January 4, 2025 by Gary Collinson

Dynamite Entertainment puts its own What If…?/Esleworlds-style spin on spin on the winged vampire goddess Purgatori this coming Wednesday with the one-shot comic Altered States: Purgatori Grindhouse; get yourself a sneak peek at the issue below with the official preview…

In the summer of 1976, Tori Sachs and her friends went to an innocent beach party to celebrate the end of high school… and wandered into a scene of satanic carnage that would shock the world!

Now, decades later, the truth can at last be told, and the burning questions answered: Why were the teens targeted for slaughter that night? And what unholy creature did they fall victim to?

Written by master of the macabre RAY FAWKES (Constantine, Justice League Dark) and illustrated by veteran Purgatori whisperer FEDERICO SORRESSA, Altered States: Purgatori Grindhouse returns readers to the golden age of slasher entertainment — complete with sinfully era-appropriate covers from JOSEPH MICHAEL LINSNER, LUCIO PARRILLO, MIKE ROOTH, and cosplay by RACHEL HOLLON!

Altered States: Purgatori Grindhouse is out on Wednesday, January 8th 2025.
