Vampirella #45

This "Special Summer Giant" issue of Warren's Vampirella #45 (1975) packs in five macabre classics of horror — witches, demons, ghouls, and monsters — making it an especially generous package for fans of the macabre. The cover is a striking multi-panel showcase featuring Vampirella herself front and center in her signature red costume, surrounded by four framed vignettes — moody, atmospheric paintings depicting various dark figures and a second, more shadowy rendering of Vampirella — all rendered by an impressive quartet of cover artists: Frank Frazetta, Enrich, José González, and Sanjulián. Inside, "Blood Wager" is brought to life by writer Len Wein with art and inks by Gonzalo Mayo and lettering by Gaspar Saladino, rounding out a genuinely packed issue that earns its summer giant billing.
