Dynamite Entertainment is set to expand the world of Vampirella this June as writers Tom Sniegoski and Jeannine Acheson and artist Daniel Maine team for Vampiverse Presents: The Vamp, a one-shot comic focussing on the noir variant of the Daughter of Drakulon.
“I’m a huge fan of the pulps (The Shadow, Doc Savage, The Spider) and getting a chance to write a Vampirella with that kind of crazy, over-the-top storytelling is something that I can’t wait to do,” said writer Tom Sniegoski. “There’s even a talking orangutan butler, for Pete’s sake!”
“The Vamp was definitely one of the characters that stood out to us as we wrote the Vampiverse mini-series,” added Acheson. “She was one of the more ‘fleshed-out’ Vampirellas — taking on a life of her own as soon as she appeared — so Tom and I are really excited to re-visit her in this issue!”
