Originally debuting in 1994, Vengeance of Vampirella portrayed a more savage and feral look at the Daughter of Drakulon. Now, for the 50th Anniversary of Vampirella, original series writer Tom Sniegoski (joined by the incredible art of Michael Sta. Maria) is back. Set 25 years after the initial series, Vampirella is Dead!? Long Live Vampirella! Humanity holds on, but barely, the playthings and slaves of a multitude of supernatural monstrosities that have made the earth their own. Mistress Nyx continues to rule the planet, her Chaos Lords reigning over the various regions of the world, but she is getting bored - There's no one to challenge her! That is, until a small, but determined rebellion finds what could be their savior or seal their doom!

Still recovering from her final battle with Hemorrhage, Vampirella realizes that there will be no rest for the wicked and begins the process of assembling a plan that will hopefully result in the liberation of the Earth from the clutches of Mistress Nyx, and the Chaos Lords. Step One-the creation of a new Danse Macabre!

Vampirella struggles not only with the bestial side of her nature but with the mysterious return of Adam Van Helsing. Besieged on all sides, she and the remnants of the Danse Macabre fight on against the Lords of Chaos while the world slips that much closer towards oblivion. Issues 13 thru 19

Writer Tom Sniegoski continues to weave a post-apocalyptic tale featuring a literal hell on earth as a reborn vampirella fights against the literal forces of chaos to save humanity from its ultimate destruction! The war between Order and Chaos has come to an end, and as the dust settles, humanity begins the process of rising from the ashes. Vampirella, forever changed, must begin a journey across the barren landscape of a world ravaged by the supernatural... But is it too late for her to regain her lost humanity? Issues 20 thru 25

Spinning out of Christopher Priests successful Vampirella and Sacred Six series….comes Draculina. One child, two destinies: who is the daughter of Lilith of Drakulon? Is she a streetwise runaway human preteen, or is she Vampirella's deadly siren night-stalker evil twin? Two souls linked by a reality-jumping demon struggle for control of their own destiny as Draculina, Lilith's first and most beloved daughter, is brought into Vampirella's reality and linked to an alternate version of herself by a cursed candle which warps reality when lit, swapping Draculina with her other possible ""self""-a tough homeless preteen struggling to make it on her own while being constantly drawn into Draculina's schemes. Establishing a secret identity for herself as ""River East"", high-profile socialite daughter of the missing and presumed dead Lilith Ogden Eastaughffe, Draculina presses forth with a secret, evil agenda of bloody retribution against everyone who's ever done her wrong, with only Katie-her alt-self-standing between her and her deadly goals. Draculina is a wild, fast-paced ride through the literal reverse sensitivities of our altruistic Vampirella, brought to you by Christopher Priest & Vengeance of Vampi artist Michael Sta. Maria! Buckle up for one dark, wild ride!
