Vampirella is a character that admittedly appeals primarily to the fellas, but I have always liked the art associated with the title, even if the stories have been lackluster.  Still, the title has survived for 40 years, so they are doing something right with the character.  Plenty of great artists have also drawn Vampirella at one time or another and the love for the character has been strong.

Harris Comics is releasing 4 variant covers to the "Vampirella: The Second Coming" storyline being released in September of this year.  Images are provided below the news blurb.

Also, there will be a Vampire Con in Hollywood, California during August, the first of its kind, and it appears Vampirella will be guaranteed to show up. 

This is news I that has a bite to it and something I can sink my teeth into.  *groan*

VAMPIRELLA: THE SECOND COMING #1

Vampirella is not real. Like Marilyn Monroe and Betty Page she’s a cultural phenomenon now woven into society’s DNA, a symbol of sensuality and power. So thinks a group of women who become increasingly and inexplicably fascinated with her, getting Vampi tattoos, researching her story and seeking each other out to celebrate her. But as a virus ravages Washington, possessing any man it comes across and liberating their darkest desires, these women feel a call from something… or someone… to battle this new threat.
