Review: ‘Vampirella Strikes’ #1

Vampirella is one of the characters that has been consistently plagued by terrible writing. During the 90s Vampirella was at the forefront of the “Bad Girl” craze that featured female protagonists using their sexuality as a weapon. The story was typically secondary to the artwork, which often featured Vampirella striking a series of cheesecake sexual poses for fanboys to drool over. READ MORE

Review: ‘Vampirella vs. Fluffy the Vampire Killer’ One-shot

The latest Vampirella one-shot is a hilariously woven tale that magnificently dives into full-blown spoof territory, as Mark Rahner places Vampi into the farcical world of “Fluffy the Vampire Killer”. That’s right, Vampirella bumps heads with a satirical version of Joss Whedon’s beloved popular culture icon, Buffy Summers. And if you’re a fan of either series, it’s a face-off that’s definitely worth checking out! READ MORE

Vampirella is about as sultry as a vampire can get, even more so than the True Blood stars, and that says a lot. Since Dynamite took the title over a few years back, they’ve been pumping out constant story arcs with the scantily clad femme-vamp. The best part about “Vampirella” is how accessible it is for readers across the board. Sure, it may not be something you want your seven-year-old to be reading, but long time fans and complete newbies can enjoy it just the same. Check out the sexy preview below. READ MORE

Interview: Ron Marz On Shinku

After capping his 70-issue run Witchblade and totally tearing apart the Top Cow universe in Artifacts, writer Ron Marz is now focusing his efforts on spilling buckets of blood in his new horror/martial arts series Shinku with artist Lee Moder from Image Comics.

Shinku is the epic story of one samurai’s war against a clan of vampires, as she tries to eradicate every last blood-sucker on the planet. The solicitations for this book summarized it best with, “If you’re looking for vampires that sparkle … this ain’t it.” Shinku is a vampire story with balls and it brings back the gritty, stomach turning horror that has been missing from other vampire titles on shelves.

Ron sat down with Bloody-Disgusting to discuss the genesis of Shinku, the pitfalls of creator owned titles in today’s market and how the series is the antidote to the current vampire trends happening in comics.
