Elizabeth Bathory may be the most prolific serial killer that ever lived, and Scout Comics is telling her story in the pages of Vanity by writer Jurii Kirnev, and artist Natalia Tsarevnikova.
VANITY—a gothic tragedy in nine acts—is based on the life of Hungarian Countess Elizabeth Bathory (1560–1614), listed in The Guinness Book of Records as the greatest murderess in the history of mankind. According to legend, she was convinced that drinking and bathing in the blood of young virgin girls would preserve her youth and beauty. However, the historical documents tell us a slightly different yet far more mysterious and sinister story.
Vanity is scheduled to arrive on August 30, 2023.
