Lady Death Crossovers

Lady Death has a long standing history of appearing alongside other comic characters - including Pandora, Vampirella, Shi, War Angel and Witchblade.

Publishers

Brian Pulido's character was originally published by Eternity Comics in Evil Ernie's first comic series (1991). When Chaos! Comics formed, she was given her own series in the Chaos universe alongside figures such as Purgatori and Chastity. These key titles essentially defined the publisher's style and created a sensation. Unfortunately, despite their popularity, Chaos Comics went bankrupt and were forced to sell their properties.

(As a side note, the animated feature film from ADV was already in production at this point.)

Lady Death was sold to Crossgen; but a mere two years later they also filed for bankruptcy and she was sold on to Avatar Press, where she still appears in her own monthly comic. When Crossgen acquired the license for Lady Death, they naturally could not set her in the Chaos Comics universe that she had been used to. Their solution was to recreate the character. Confusingly, Avatar now publishes two versions of the character - the "classic" Lady Death... and Medieval Lady Death (which more or less carries on from the Crossgen editions).
