It's on! Boomstick vs. fangs! The battle you've always wanted to see between Ash and Vampirella - sort of. Make that Ash and a monstrously transformed Vampi, as they tear through the medieval castle! Hilarious slapstick action and chills aplenty from Mark Rahner (Vampirella Bites, Army of Darkness/Reanimator) and Jethro Morales!
This is without a doubt a fun read due to it all being about action, fighting and funny moments. It doesn't break the mold of the common comic book trope of heroes fighting for the sake of fighting, but it's fun nonetheless. Read Full Review
The fun with this installment is definitely just in the whole chase sequence between Ash and Vampirella. Morales captures the look of her in this form as there's an almost boredom kind of feeling coming out of her, if not for the fact that she's just annoyed with Ash's antics considering he caused a lot of it. The dialogue is fun if simple and it has a good flow about it. The book is actually a very fast read up until the last few pages gets tied down in a bit more dialogue, so it's definitely worth a second read just to take in the artwork in more detail since the story carries you through fast. I just wish Dynamite's color design would let the details shine through a bit more rather than everything being so utterly darkened. Read Full Review
Vampirella / Army of Darkness #2 is an uninspired romp through the Evil Dead universe. Questionable art decisions and poorly written dialogue fumble what could have been a grand-slam of interesting interaction between two beloved, but well worn characters. Luckily, there's still plenty of room for the series to redeem itself. Read Full Review
The book tries for humor in a couple of spots and while those moments may have worked in a better written book I hate everything that's going on so much that I just can't find them funny. Read Full Review
