Vampirella vs. The Superpowers launching in May from Dynamite

February 25, 2023 by Gary Collinson

Dynamite Entertainment has announced that writer Dan Abnett is set to thrust the Daughter of Drakulon back into the superhero spotlight this May with the launch of Vampirella vs. The Superpowers.

“Vampirella’s last two outings as a superhero were very much at the supernatural and cosmic end of the scale,” said Abnett, who teams with artist Pasquale Qualano (DC vs. Vampires) on the series. “So for this story, I wanted to capture more of the street-level action of classic urban vigilante heroes, and throw in a retro dash of glamour, style, intrigue and noir. This is a hard-boiled world of crime, hoodlums, mystery identities and dirty secrets. The elevator pitch this time around might be ‘L.A. Confidential with superpowers’. It’s an era that perfectly suits Vampirella as the femme fatale, and it’s going to be a lot of fun.”

Vampirella vs. The Superpowers finds Vampirella and her new trusty sidekick Dyna Might investigating a mysterious world. This planet appears strangely similar to our own Earth of the 1940s. That includes the crime, corruption, but also in the Superpowers mythos, a legion of Golden Age superheroes. They won’t be taking too kindly to meddling from an interdimensional vampire alien either!

Being a superhero is bloodthirsty work, and this will be one of Vampirella’s biggest battles in her fifty-plus years. Can she survive the hard-boiled menace posed by both villains and heroes alike? Can she keep her precocious sidekick alive to tell the tale? And at the heart of it all, will she be able to solve the mystery and save a world in danger?

Vampirella vs. The Superpowers #1 will go on sale in May 2023.
