Vampiverse 5

With Book as her captive, Bloodwing continues to murder Vampirellas across the different realities, searching for the missing pages of the Book of Prophecy in her twisted quest to find and destroy the Artist. Meanwhile, Vampirella and her sisters of Draculon do battle during the Stone Age against an ancient tribe of Chaos demons before beginning their journey to save all reality. This penultimate issue of VampiVerse has it all—death, destruction and more Vampirellas than you can shake a stick at! You don’t want to miss this one!

With the monstrous Bloodwing in pursuit, Vampirella, Book, and the adorable-yet-deadly Baby Prague continue their search for the missing pages from the Book of Prophecy. Along the way, they’ll run into never-before-seen Vampirellas across the fabric of time and space who’re to aid them in thwarting Bloodwing’s plan of reshaping reality. Also: in this issue we meet The Vamp, a pulp-style crime fighter who could give the Shadow a run for his money (if he carried money)!

It is up to the Vampirella of one of these universes to gather some of her special sisters to stop this growing threat and keep it from destroying the Creator of all things—the Artist—and preventing the unraveling of all reality.

In this issue, the evil Vampirella, Bloodwing, and her captive Book at last reach the fabled Library, the final stop before she can carry out her nefarious plan of destroying the Artist and rewriting all of the Vampirellas’ realities. But there are still major roadblocks: Book is missing the crucial pages that will lead them directly to the Artist, and an army of Vampirellas from realities far and wide hellbent on stopping her have just arrived at the Library. Will the daughters of Drakulon be able to defeat their psychotic sister and save the threads of the Fabric, or will Bloodwing vanquish them all and reshape their stories in her own glorious, twisted image?
