Vampirella!

Vampirella #1 (Sept. 1969). Cover art by Frank...Image via Wikipedia
Ah! I could look at images of everyone's favorite blood-sucking bombshell from Drakulon all day! But then I wouldn't get anything done.
Created by Forrest J. Ackerman for Warren Publishing in the late 1960's, there is (to my mind) only one, true version of the character of Vampirella: the one gracing the covers and pages of the horror magazine published from 1969 to 1983. Classic!
Note: All images pulled from the prodigious archive of Heritage Auctions. Check 'em out!
