Ash Meets Vampirella In New Four Issue Miniseries

Dynamite are bring together two horror icons as Ash Williams from Army Of Darkness meets up with Vampirella. The new four issue miniseries Vampirella / Army Of Darkness kicks off this July written by Mark Rahner and drawn by Jethro Morales.

The events of Vampirella / Army of Darkness take place during Ash Williams' time trapped in the England of 1300 A.D. When the terrified, primitive screwheads approach the Chosen One with tales of a horrific flying Deadite — one similar to the one he blasted out of the air when first arrived, but much deadlier — Ash sets out with his boomstick and chainsaw to protect his adopted people. At the same time, a raven-haired temptress wants to give him some sugar… as his last meal!

Writer Mark Rahner says, "I loved writing Ash in Vampirella / Army of Darkness. He's the rare combination of completely oblivious buffoon who's also somehow incredibly cool when he has to be. The Vampi stories I've done have been sick satires of other pop culture horror – Buffy, True Blood, and Kolchak in the 100th issue special. I'm excited to write her in more of a straight-ahead (well, mostly) horror-adventure. This Vampirella is less superhero and more occult temptress and monster… and she definitely doesn't belong in 1300 A.D."

Vampirella / Army of Darkness #1 will be solicited in the May Previews catalog for a release date in July. The first issue will have covers by Tim Seeley, Jae Lee and Tony Fleecs.
