Hack/Slash vs. Vampirella #1

Two of horror comics' most formidable women collide in this cleverly designed opening issue from Dynamite, with Jenny Frison's cover rendered as a Queen of Hearts playing card — Cassie Hack, bat in hand, mirrored against a clawed and ready Vampirella in a perfectly symmetrical composition. The card motif is a genuinely inspired touch, the two figures locked in a confrontational pose that captures both characters' distinct styles — Cassie's punk-gothic edge versus Vampirella's vampiric confidence — all in Frison's elegant, fluid linework. It's a strong start to what promises to be a wild crossover.
