As we continue in the Vampirella Monthly ashcans we move towards the conclusion of this series with the crossover between Vampirella and Lady Death. I have included them here as they are normally included in the series. The ashcans gradually reveal more and more background material to the development of each mini-series, making them more valuable for the fans rather than simply producing a preview of the comic in black and white. |
