Today Dynamite has announced that they will re-introduce The Scarlet Legion to Vampirella's mythology. In May's Vampirella & the Scarlet Legion #1, the Crimson Chronicles, the foul bible of blood, foretells the coming of Chaos, the Destroyer and his servants on Earth. Vampirella has stood between the vicious cult and their Mad God ways since her earliest days. When an ancient prophecy of doom is uncovered and there's a new push to resurrect the foulest demons, it's clear that Vampirella won't be able to take them on alone. The Scarlet Legion is assembled to keep back the dark things and protect the world from the evils which lie beyond.
Will the Legion see Vampirella as a friend...or a foe?

Writing this new series will be Joe Harris with his first work at Dynamite.
You can find out more when the series debuts in May. For now, check out these preview pages courtesy of Dynamite."I'm stoked to be working on a Vampirella story, one of the baddest, sexiest and most iconic characters and properties in horror comics," says writer Joe Harris. "We're looking to do something big and sprawling with a bit of a globe-spanning sweep to it. A big screen adventure interwoven with some some frightening and truly horrific moments that, I hope, will help keep the dark scary. Vampirella & The Scarlet Legion expands our vampire heroine's inner circle a bit, but not always with friends. Sometimes rivals, or even enemies, make for more interesting dynamics. We're doing horror, after all. You want to keep things tense, and less than rosy. I'm a big fan of what Dynamite has been able to do in this market and I'm both proud and humbled to be on board. They've taken some great properties and really carved out a space for themselves. Nick Barrucci is a true patron of this industry and it's no wonder Dynamite have gotten a lot of well-deserved attention lately."
