VAMPIRE HUNTER D NOVEL #8

NORTH SEA PT 2

(W) Hideyuki Kikuchi (A) Yoshitaka Amano (CA) Yoshitaka Amano

The picturesque coastal town of Florence was known for millennia as a pleasure resort for the Nobility. As retribution for their decadence, the cruel and beautiful vampire inhabitants were "punished," driven out more than a thousand years ago by a solitary traveler in black. Only one-Baron Meinster-refused to leave, only to be thrown to the waves by the mysterious assassin. Summoned to contemporary Florence by Su-in, sister of a murdered village girl, the enigmatic Vampire Hunter D discovers a vampire curse ravaging the town's human inhabitants. The plague apparently originating, impossibly, from the unforgiving sea-could it be Meinster's Revenge? • More than seventeen million Vampire Hunter D books in print worldwide. •  Cover and six interior illustrations by renowned artist Yoshitaka Amano!

(W) Nancy A. Collins (A) Patrick Berkenkotter (CA) Terry Dodson

COLLECTING VAMPIRELLA (2014) #1-13, ANNUAL 2015, & PRELUDE TO SHADOWS BY NANCY A. COLLINS IN ONE MASSIVE, 424-PAGE OMNIBUS!   Vampirella is sent by the Vatican to investigate the kidnapping of a little girl by Ethan Shroud and the Chaos cultists, only to become the centerpiece of a ritual invoking Lady Umbra, the sister-bride of Chaos, that leaves her marked as a living sacrifice to the dark goddess who rules the shadows.   Then...Vampirella assumes the role and obligations of Lord Drago, joining The Kabal, a clandestine organization of supernatural creatures. When a strange, rabies-like plague spreads through the slums of Sao Paolo like wildfire, infecting victims with homicidal fury, the Kabal calls upon Vampirella to capture the disease's murderous creator -- one of The Accursed, a human condemned to eternal life for his sins: the fabled Dr. Faustus.   VAMPIRELLA is back and returns to her horror roots with Bram Stoker Award-winning author Nancy A. Collins (Swamp Thing, Sunglasses After Dark, Jason vs. Leatherface) and Patrick Berkenkotter (Avengers/Invaders, Red Sonja).
