VAMPIRELLA STRIKES VOL. 2: HELL IS FOR HEROES

Having fulfilled her role in Vengeance, Vampirella is now poised to Strike in an all-new series arising from the post-apocalyptic ashes of Dynamite’s Vengeance of Vampirella series! It has been fifteen years since the death of Mistress Nyx and the world in slowly recovering, but this isn’t a world that we’ve ever seen before. This is a world where the natural, and the supernatural have merged to create a dangerous new place — a world very much in need of Vampirella. Whispers on the street of Sepulcher City talk of evil on the rise. The Cult of Chao is up to something big — but what? A secret meeting of the Cult’s highest ranking officials is about to occur in a Romanian castle where their plans will be revealed, a meeting that Vampirella must attend — but how? Collects issues #6 - 13.
