The Dynamite multiverse continues in May 2023 as Dan Abnett and Pasquale Qualano bring fans Vampirella vs. The Superpowers.
It’s full-throttle throwback action as Vampirella and her new trusty sidekick Dyna Might find themselves investigating a mysterious world. This planet appears strangely similar to our own Earth of the 1940s. That includes the crime, and corruption, but also in the Superpowers mythos, a legion of Golden Age superheroes. They won’t be taking too kindly to meddling from an interdimensional vampire alien either!
“Vampirella’s last two outings as a superhero were very much at the supernatural and cosmic end of the scale,” said writer Dan Abnett in a press release from Dynamite Entertainment. “So for this story, I wanted to capture more of the street-level action of classic urban vigilante heroes, and throw in a retro dash of glamour, style, intrigue, and noir. This is a hard-boiled world of crime, hoodlums, mystery identities, and dirty secrets. The elevator pitch this time around might be ‘L.A. Confidential with superpowers’. It’s an era that perfectly suits Vampirella as the femme fatale, and it’s going to be a lot of fun.”
