*"I used to read VAMPIRELLA years ago when it was published by Warren," comments world-famous illustrator Boris Vallejo, a veteran of countless posters, book covers, and fantasy related artwork. "At that time, Jose Gonzalez illustrated it, and I guess Jose and I have a lot in common. My approach to Vampirella, however, was slightly different than his. Gonzalez rendered her as a sexy-but childlike and innocent-creature. I wanted her a little bit more savvy...more in total control. She's a very sensual person, and the vampire stuff is pretty incidental in my painting." *Source: Back of card
