Vampirella #5

Warren's Vampirella #5 (June 1970) delivers the kind of primal, atmospheric cover that only Frank Frazetta could conjure — a muscular warrior raises a hammer against a pale, white-haired figure clutching a dagger, while a hulking, monstrous creature lurks menacingly at the edge of a barren, storm-shadowed landscape. The brooding mood perfectly matches the magazine's promise of "Illustrated Tales to Bewitch & Bedevil You," and inside, Nicola Cuti and Tom Sutton bring that dark energy to the story "The Satanic Sisterhood of Stonehenge!" If you have any affection for Warren's brand of horror anthology storytelling, this issue is a vivid snapshot of the magazine at full creative force.
