In chapter Four of "Beyond," the truth strikes home as Vampi finally realizes that reality as she has known it has been radically changed - for the better! Having now discovered the source of this universe-wide retcon, she is challenged to engage an old enemy in order to return everything to normal. But the question is: should she?
The celebration of Vampirella's sixth decade in comics - and the countdown to issue #700 - picks up speed with Vampirella #669, crafted by the acclaimed creative team of CHRISTOPHER PRIEST and ERGÜN GÜNDÜZ, and featuring timeless new covers from LUCIO PARRILLO, ELIAS CHATZOUDIS, and CARLA COHEN!
VAMPIRELLA #669 picks up the pace and the information dumps to explain how Vampirella got stuck in a dream loop, why Draculina wants to keep her in it, and what she needs to do (maybe) to get out of it. The pace is peppy, and the art team's action keeps the visuals interesting, but the biggest point of anticipation is wanting this convoluted mess of a story to be over. Read Full Review
As the arc has progressed I'm starting to enjoy the work off Priest more and more. Hopefully the next issue will clear up some off the confusion....JM
Weird. I'm not that knowledgeable about Vampirella, I've never read the book regularly but as a 90s kid I was always aware of her. I decided to give the book a shot since I've picked up a few here and there because of the covers, I started reading at #666 and also read Dead Flowers. Maybe this all makes perfect sense to someone who's been following along for a while, and the captions do an ok job of filling in the blanks, but I'm not sure I'm going to stick with this. We'll see.
