LADY SATAN II "Son of Lord Lucifer"

When last we left the Black Mistress of Horror...

Lady Satan, the demoness possessing Anne Jackson's body forced her to mate with the Devil, thus making her pregnant with his progeny.

But Anne doesn't intend to allow the child to be born...even if it costs her life...

We'll never know what happens next, since this never-reprinted tale written by Al Hewetson and illustrated by Pablo Marcos from Skywald's b/w magazine Psycho #19 (1974) was the last Lady Satan story published!

LADY SATAN II "Satan Wants a Child!"

When Last We Left Comics' FIRST Black Anti-Heroine...

...well, so much for a happy reunion for the newlyweds!

And things are about to get even weirder...

Written by Al Hewetson (under the pen-name "Howie Anderson") and illustrated by Ricardo Villamonte, this never-reprinted tale from Skywald's b/w magazine Scream #4 (1973) takes "parental rights" to a whole new level.

VAMPIRELLA "Origin" 2.5

We previously brought you the revised origin of Vampirella...

Art by Ken Kelly

...now here's the re-revised origin, using the art previously-published in color, but now in it's originally-intended b/w form!

This rewritten version of Vampi's revised origin appeared in Warren's Vampirella #46 (1975), just three years after it's first appearance (in color) in Vampirella Annual #1 (1972).

Rewritten by Budd Lewis, but using the previously-produced art by Vampi's signature artist Jose Gonzalez, this was a retelling of the girl from Drakulon's origin first told by writer Forrest J Ackerman and artist Tom Sutton in the magazine's premiere issue in 1969.

(And you thought Marvel and DC rebooted their continuities quickly!).
This version was reprinted by Harris Comics when they had the rights to the character, but Harris totally-redid the origin story, eliminating the extra-terrestrial aspect.
The recent revival by Dynamite Entertainment, follows the Harris Comics version of the character.
Dynamite is also reprinting the Warren series in trade paperback form.

VAMPIRELLA "Origin" 2.0

Back in the 1970s, when Vampirella was a b/w magazine...

...the publisher experimented with doing full-color inserts, resulting in this story becoming the first Vampi tale in color!

This never-reprinted tale appeared in Warren's Vampirella Annual #1 (1972).

Written by J R Cochran and illustrated by Vampi's signature artist Jose Gonzalez, this was a retelling of the girl from Drakulon's origin first told by writer Forrest J Ackerman and artist Tom Sutton in the magazine's premiere issue only three years earlier.

(And you thought Marvel and DC rebooted their continuities quickly!).

Ironically, when this story was re-used (in b/w, not color), it was totally-rewritten, and that version has been reprinted several times since (hence the 2.0 designation for this tale).
