Elvira, Mistress of the Dark #77

In "Rome on the Range," Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, rides into Italy in full cowboy regalia, teaming up with the enigmatic Caroline Seemore on a desert trek that quickly turns undead. As zombie hordes rise from a hidden graveyard, the duo is saved by the mysterious zombie Flint Westwood, leading them to the secret lair of Silent Q. Written by Frank Strom and illustrated by Ronn Sutton, with inks by Louis LaChance and letters by Susan Dorne, this 1999 adventure blends Western grit with gothic horror, all culminating in a dramatic explosion and a last-minute dash to the Naples Film Festival.
