Vampirella #23

Lucio Parrillo's painted cover for this 2021 Dynamite issue presents Vampirella in her signature crimson costume, blood on her lips and fingertips, as she crouches triumphantly over a glowing teal cauldron filled with some writhing, otherworldly mass — a severed monster's head held casually in one hand. The eerie contrast between that supernatural green luminescence and the blood-red background gives the image a genuinely unsettling atmosphere that Parrillo renders with striking detail. A fine entry in Dynamite's ongoing series for fans who appreciate their horror with a touch of dark glamour.
