“I don't even get to take out my pent-up rage by killing some guys, and somehow it's my fault. - The Vampirella Story”
Whitley’s run of Vampirella is my first time reading her in her own series. The “Swords of Sorrow” crossover series got me interested in her, but seeing her costumes in the past turned me off. As someone familiar with Whitley’s work and his attention to good female and queer representation, I accepted a free copy for an honest review.
Vampirella has confidence and sass in spades, but she’s also a little self-deprecating. Her internal monologue is entertaining, especially with the tasteful placement of some dirty jokes that don’t shy away from Vampi and Vicki’s relationship. Vampi’s also kind of a doof when it comes to romance, and watching her fumble makes her relatable in the most endearing way. She and Vicki bicker and banter and it’s wonderful.
“I do not appreciate being spoken to as if I am the love interest in the story. I am the heroine here.”
Things get a little Mad Max: Fury Road of the issue and it’s good.
4.5/5

Meh. Not terrible, but the lesbian couple thing is not done in a very Vampirella way and though I like the new artist better than the last, the story is not great. Maybe the plot is good, but the dialogue and love story are mot interesting to me.
