Vampirella (2nd series)

This miniseries is special for two reasons. The first is that Harris introduced a model photo cover for the first time, and did so in style by launching the series with four alternate covers of the same model, Sascha Knopf. Later issues contained a limited edition cover as well as the regular cover. The second reason is that the series tended to fall outside the regular Vampi storyline. However I have placed the stories in Vampirella Strikes into the timeline as best I can.

Vampirella Strikes was originally called Vampirella Tales but the name was changed later. I think I prefer the 'Strikes' name.

Vampirella Strikes #1

Wow! Four issues of the Vampirella model Sascha Knopf.  There was also a Dynamic Forces edition of the regular cover signed by Tom Sniegoski and Ed McGuiness, and a special Dynamic Forces collection signed by Tom Sniegoski containing issues #1 and #2 in a special folder.  However, my collection also includes a signed copy from a 1995 con signed by sascha Knopf herself, plus Tom Sniegoski and Ed McGuiness.  For a photo of this signing click here.

A special signed copy of this cover because the Vampirella model, Sascha Knopf, signed it as well as Tom Sniegoski and Ed McGuiness.  COA from 'The Signed Edition'.

The limited American Entertainment edition signed by Tom Sniegoski.  Part of the Dynamic Forces collection featuring #1 and #2, limited to 250 collections. 

Vampirella Strikes #2

This cover is featured because #2 is part of the Dynamic Forces limited collection of #1 and #2 signed by Tom Sniegoski.

Vampirella Strikes #3

Another of my favourites, the cover by Rudy Nebres hearkens back to the classic science fiction pulp covers of the 1930s.

Vampirella Strikes #5

Only two covers for this issue, but an alternative version of the regular cover exists as an official Sketch set which includes a hand drawn sketch by Nelson.

Dynamic Forces signed version, signed by Nelson. Limited to 500 copies.

The limited signed Convention Sketch set, limited to 500 copies.  The cover was signed by Nelson.

Vampirella Strikes #6

These two covers must be the sexiest ones of Vampi so far, although it would be a hard choice because of the quality of so many others. Introducing a weird tale inside, these covers hint at the dark deeds revealed inside. The alternate cover is a rare treat, and the Dynamic Forces signed edition is limited to only 500 copies.

Alternative Dynamic Forces signed cover, limited to 500 copies

Vampirella Strikes Annual #1

For my money the alternative cover for the Vampirella Strikes Annual is one of the best. Vampirella is almost waif-like despite the horror of what she has just done, as she licks the blood from her hand. An excellent and very collectable cover.

Alternative signed cover, signed by Louis Small Junior for Dynamic Forces.  Limited to 250 copies.
