“Shanghaied”

Warren Magazine's Vampirella #79 (July 1979) delivers a vivid cover by Jordi Penalva that says everything you need to know about the issue's mood: Vampirella, clad in her signature red costume, is coiled in the crushing grip of a massive, snarling green dragon, her arm thrust upward in defiance as the beast lunges toward her. The cover banner teases that Pendragon and Pantha are "Shanghaied on a Slow Boat to China," promising an adventure with an exotic, serpentine twist. Inside, writer Bill DuBay and artist/inker Gonzalo Mayo bring the story to life — a fine creative pairing for one of Warren's most enduring horror-fantasy titles.
