“Vampirella is a unique horror heroine, a neoclassic monster fighter more in the vein of Kolchak the Night Stalker than the sun-sparkle vampires that have taken over the genre. If you appreciate horror, but a work with a ray of hope, check out the latest volume of Vampirella.” – Comics Bulletin
“Vampires, fighty-fighty, strong female character, and good versus evil. What’s not to like?”– Major Spoilers
