The Daughter of Drakulon is celebrating another huge historic moment, as she comes up on Vampirella #675! Dynamite is excited to announce this celebratory milestone special release, with another essential chapter in the long-running epic run by the legendary Christopher Priest, a set of show-stopping variant covers, and more as the march to #700 continues!

Following the status quo-shattering events of "The Dark World" story arc (issues #671-674), Vampirella's analyst Doc Chary is brought before a review board to explain his conduct with his bizarre patient. How can he explain his alleged "enabling" of her "vampire fetish"-inspired paracosm to those who do not know the deeper, darker truths of her life and backstory?

Chary will reveal to fans a never-before-seen episode of the raven-haired antiheroine's life in which Vampi was committed to a mental institution for a 72-hour observation period. Across those three fateful days, several people wound up being murdered — but is Vampirella to blame?

For this special milestone issue, the legendary Christopher Priest is joined by acclaimed artist Aaron Felizmenio, as well as the continued veteran lettering of Willie Schubert. The creative team ring in the New Year this January with this chilling tale of blood and madness like no other.

To mark this major mark in the road to #700, a squad of skilled artists have assembled to pay homage through stunning variant covers. Leading the pack is the heralded return of Jenny Frison, who remains a fan-favorite among the character's fans for her beloved run of covers a decade ago for the run by Nancy A. Collins. Since then she's only become even more of a superstar, and this may be her best vision of Vampirella yet! She's joined by stalwarts Lucio Parrillo, Joseph Michael Linsner, and cosplayer Rachel Hollon. Plus, Elias Chatzoudis whips up a special New Year's 2025 cover!

This issue is both a critical chapter of Priest's ongoing epic, yet also a perfect jumping-on point for new and returning readers. It is a standalone chapter break between major story arcs, revealing an untold tale of the Drakulonian's twisted life and acting as a primer explaining who Vampirella is and the basic dynamics of this series. What follows the next month will only ramp things up even more for the next major era of the character, the return of modern signature artist Ergün Gündüz, and more big surprises. More details to be revealed soon!

VAMPIRELLA #675 will be solicited in Diamond Comic Distributors’ November 2024 Previews catalog, the premier source of merchandise for the comic book specialty market, and slated for release in January 2025. Comic book fans are encouraged to preorder copies of the book with their local comic book retailers. It will also be available for individual customer purchase through digital platforms courtesy of Comixology, Kindle, iBooks, Google Play, Dynamite Digital, ComicsPlus, and more!

Dynamite is excited to announce Dynamite Originals, a brand new imprint debuting first on Kickstarter with a heavy-hitting roster of creators taking on the company's flagship character — Vampirella! This new label will feature unique visions and innovative collaborations with the biggest creators in comics of today and tomorrow. It all starts with Vampirella: Black, White & Blood live on Kickstarter now!

This prestige anthology project is a close collaboration with Arancia Studio, known for its juggernaut leader Mirka Andolfo (Sweet Paprika, Mercy, Harley Quinn). Some of the most exciting rising stars of the Italian studio join today's biggest names in American comics on this star-studded special release. The whole book sports a stunning black-and-white palette, with splashes of red to really show off the artwork in these three tantalizing tales. It's the ultimate spotlight on the character and an international team-up of the comics craft.

"I couldn't be more thrilled about this book," said creator Mirka Andolfo. "Vampirella is such an iconic character…I had the pleasure of drawing her before, but this is my first time writing her. And I really hope it's not my last, because I had a lot of fun, also because I was surrounded by phenomenal creators! You're going to see some great things...”

Andolfo's creative and business partner Davide G.G. Caci added, “When, with our friends at Dynamite, we started talking about a Black, White & Blood special for Vampirella, we knew right away that we were on the same page. It was amazing to see how everyone — their team, our team, our editor Davide Morando, and of course, all the creators — were on the same page. At Arancia, we love to create creative bridges, and this special issue is something to be proud of: extraordinary American and European artists and writers teaming up to tell some stories starring a unique character.”

Andolfo leads the way with a fascinating fable with a meta twist. In "Redefining Shadows," she and artist Greta Xella depict the most unlikely team-up for the Daughter of Drakulon. The story spotlights the Daughter of Drakulon as a guardian, her goals of retribution, her dreams, and judgment. Vampirella can be many things depending on the role one views her as within her story. But whoever you choose to be, hope you never become the object of her savage hunt!

In "Undercover" by Tim Seeley (Nightwing, Hack/Slash) and Zulema Scotto Lavina the Drakulonian antiheroine is accused of a series of violent murders. To clear her name, she goes undercover, embedding herself in a gang of vicious vampire hunters. In her quest to track down the mystery killer and protect her own kind, she may discover the culprit could be someone close to her heart.

Last but certainly not least, "The Ballad of Blind Love" features the work of Steve Orlando (Wonder Woman, Midnighter) and Alessandro Amoruso, and depicts a love story like no other. A powerful mob boss is desperately in love with Vampirella and will do anything to win her over. Misinterpreting her character and reactions, he starts bringing increasingly heinous sacrifices to garner her affection. It will take a dark turn when she demands of him the ultimate sacrifice...

Not to be outdone by the stories within, this project demanded a set of jaw-dropping covers by top names to deliver a perfect package to fans. Mirka Andolfo of course contributes one of course for the title she and her team are driving artistically. She's joined by superstars Stjepan Šejic, Jae Lee, and Joseph Michael Linsner. Each of these covers will be available as standard covers, chrome editions, and metal editions, plus fans will have the option to get them signed or CGC graded. And there will be options to get all four covers bundled together for a special collector’s price.

Dynamite announces a brand new series in the Vampirella mythos, spearheaded by one of the most beloved franchise creators and a reunited team, and an epic that jumps headlong into the multiverse of malevolence. Vampirella: Dark Reflections debuts this June everywhere comics are sold!

The smash hit Vampiverse event introduced fans to the idea of overflowing, infinite possibilities of Vampirella. Different versions of the character in different realities, and subject to bleed into each other. In Dark Reflections, an unexpected protagonist steps to the forefront to figure out what has happened to one of these multiversal Vampirellas. Her own daughter Lilith goes through the looking glass, tasked with investigating an anomaly in the Fabric. Working for the Reality Corp., she learns that the Vampirella of this reality has gone eerily silent, broken and beaten by the spawn of Chaos in the battle of good and evil.

It's an unexpected team-up, as Vampirellas across generations and with vastly difference experiences try to set things right. Lilith must revive and restore this iteration of her own mother to the valiant warrior of Order that she once was and is meant to be. The title reflects this darker take on the franchise, as fans get to know a darker and troubled Vampirella who has lost everything. While the vision of Vampirella is also reflected in her own daughter Lilith, shaped by her own darkness.

Tom Sniegoski is the most prolific writer in Vampirella's history, surpassing 100 issues featuring his work. His history with the character goes back over 30 years as well, spanning multiple eras and takes on the character. He's back once more and teams up again with co-writer Jeannine Acheson as well as interior artist Daniel Maine for another blockbuster following their work together on Vampiverse and The Vamp. In recent memory Sniegoski also authored Vengeance of Vampirella, Vampirella Strikes, and Pantha, co-authored with Jeannine Acheson as well.

"It was really cool getting to develop the new character of Lilith, Vampirella's daughter, who we first met in the Vampiverse mini-series, into her own distinct person," said writers Tom Sniegoski and Jeannine Acheson. "We hope to do more with this unique version of Vampirella in the future!"

In addition to this all-star squad reporting in, Dark Reflections features a who's who of top cover artists. Jenny Frison makes her heralded return to the character, and with an absolute show-stopper to lead off the series. Her run of covers for the beloved Nancy Collins run remain some of the most sought after Vampirella comics, and this one may top them all! She's joined by Lucio Parrillo, Jay Anacleto, Joseph Michael Linsner, and cosplay covers, with the first featuring the fan-favorite Joanie Brosas.

VAMPIRELLA: DARK REFLECTIONS #1 will be solicited in Diamond Comic Distributors’ April 2024 Previews catalog and slated for release in June 2024. Comic book fans are encouraged to preorder copies of the book with their local comic book retailers. It will also be available for individual customer purchase through digital platforms courtesy of Comixology, Kindle, iBooks, Google Play, Dynamite Digital, ComicsPlus, and more!
