Vampblade #2

Vampblade returns in this 2016 offering from Action Lab Comics, with a cover that puts the title character front and center in a striking black harness, heavy chains coiling around her as a snarling horned demon looms over her shoulder — both figures rendered in vivid purples and pinks that give the scene an otherworldly glow. The supernatural tension between hunter and monster is palpable, with clawed hands and glowing red eyes making clear that whatever world Vampblade inhabits, it's not a quiet one. At $14.99, this second issue promises more of the dark, stylish energy that defines the series.
