*"Humor and horror are inexorably intertwined," offers illustrator Scott Hampton, adapter of Robert E. Howard's PIGEONS FROM HELL (Tundra) and THE UPTURNED STONE (Heavy Metal). "And if there's a line between them, sometimes it's hard to tell where one begins and the other ends. The idea of anyone awakening to a glorious morning after spending the night in a coffin tickles my funny bone. To me, Vampi will always be Frank Frazetta's character. I think that Sanjulian and others did great work with her, but Frazetta's live, gorgeous Drakulonian will always be in my pantheon of sex symbols." *Source: Back of card
