VAMPIRELLA STRIKES (2013)

"Fearful that her monstrous nature is taking control, Vampirella takes solace in some extreme violence, and conversation, all topped off with a nice glass of Merlot, in a Boston tavern overrun by the demonic in the first part of this six issue story. Living in a world of growing supernatural threats, Vampirella never knows what she will be facing from one moment to the next, but what she finds waiting for her in her Boston Brownstone when she returns from a night of hunting is the most unexpected of all. Angels of Heaven sent by God . . . and they want Vampirella to work for them."

"Writer: Tom Sniegoski Art: Johnny D. Cover A: Johnny D To understand the ways of the fallen angels, Vampirella must seek out the assistance of Janus, a former soldier in the legion of Heaven, who walks the line between the damned and divine. But someone would rather the pair never meet, as a horde of street people-under the influence of a deadly new, body-twisting drug made from the blood of an Archangel-are sent to deal with them. Vampirella's mission for Heaven could be over before it's even begun. "

"Receiving aid from the most unexpected of places, Vampirella and Janus are back on the trail of the missing angel general as the mystery of what sent the divine military leader into hiding is revealed. Who are the mysterious children that Evanuel has sworn to protect, and what do they have to do with the eventual extinction of the angelic species? And, what terrible fate has befallen the customers of the Club Switzerland? All will be revealed in the thrilling, penultimate issue of the On the Side of Angels story line."

"Vampirella, Janus and the demon hound, Cleo, at last find their way to the island in the South China Sea where all their questions will be at last answered.
