Vampirella: Silver Anniversary Collection
Issue 1 (January 1997)
Bad Girl Cover - Mark Beachum $2.50
Good Girl Cover - Jim Silke $2.50
Vampirella: The Glorious Return of Sweet Baby Theda
Jose Gonzalez, art / Bill DuBay, story
(from Warren Vampirella #67 and
#68)
Another series of repeats from the Warren era.
I have to say, I like the idea of having a Good Girl and a Bad
Girl cover. It makes the concept of collecting all the variant covers
a little more tolerable - and there are only two covers per issue!

Issue 3 (March 1997)
Bad Girl Cover - Mark Beachum $2.50
Good Girl Cover - Jim Silke $2.50
Curse of the Pasha's Princess
Jose Gonzalez, art / Bill DuBay, story
(from Warren Vampirella #76)
Down to Earth!
Mike Royer, art / Forrest J. Ackerman, story
(from Warren Vampirella #2)
It's nice to have a story from the very early years illustrated
by someone other than José Gonzalez (yes, there were some
stories not drawn by Pepe!).
The Ackerman/Royer story is told by Draculina (Vampirella's
blond twin sister ...) and is about her first days on Earth
leading up to the plane crash that launched the "real"
Vampirella stories.

Issue 4 (April 1997)
Bad Girl Cover - Mark Beachum $2.50
Good Girl Cover - Jim Silke $2.50
Slaves of the Alien Amazon
Pablo Marcos, art / Bill DuBay, story
(from Warren Vampirella #80)
Vampirella and the Alien Amazon
Pablo Marcos, art / Forrest J. Ackerman, story
(from Warren Vampirella #81)
At last, a couple of great Warren Vampirella stories drawn by someone
other than Pepe Gonzalez. I love the work of José 'Pepe'
Gonzalez, but most of the reprints of Warren Vampirella stories
focus on Gonzalez' work, and ignore the other artists who drew her;
some of whom have become legends in their own right - such as Pablo
Marcos!
