Vampfe Seaiiel Mjetteiis The some

last

year of Vampi has been

of the best I've seen in i-eocnt years. Betwtx>n the single

Anton Caravana issue, the incredible from the fantastic Gonzalo Mayo, and now the unexpected return of Jose Gonzalez, the art on the lead ail

featurt^ has been impeccable! Let me also applaud the covers from SanJulian and Enrich! Beautiful work, fjentlemen! And the contents page iluatrationa Gonzalez has been pro-

ducing (in some cases theee have been even more eye-catching than the cover paintings!) prove to me that if he had the time he could do some really outstanding work and his recent contributions to VAMPI tell me he's been giving it everything

—

he's got!

Incidentally, if anyone's taking count, issue lOH marks the third time we've seen Vampl nude the first being number H7. the second

being number 100. Interestingly.

Vampi seems Alexandra Moltke of Dark Shadows! (It's Mayo's Vampi I've notitxxi that Jose's

to rt^senible

that i-esembles Caroline Munro!)

When is Warren going to print some more Vampi posters? Might I suggest that if you intend to reprint a cover painting as a post€;r. you le-ave off the magazine lettering and such? When you hang a picture on your wall, you usually want to look at it— not read it! HENRY R. KUJAWA

Camden. NJ

When

read Vampi No- 108 I thought, "They won't be able to top thi8one."Butyou did. Vampi No. 110 was a definite improvement -and why not? When Enrich, Alex Toth, Esteban Maroto and Jose Gonzalez are in it, it has to be good. Even I

first

though we lost (?) Pantha and The Fox. I didn't find myself missing them one bit. I found the high point of the issue to be "Torpedo." Toth's artwork was moody and AbuU's script was tight and action packe<l. It's interesting to see things through the eyes of the socalled "bad guy " Kec^p this one

around. of the stories esixxiially liked

were "The

pretty good. I Queen of Souls," which featured some of the finest recent work by

Maroto. I'm overjoyed at the return of the lettered. I agree with reader Mike Jones* letter: bring back the artist and writer profiles. Adds a bit of interest,

you know.

first

thing that struck me was the gorgeous Enrich cover -gorgeous even by his standards. Then I noticed the words "Full Length Collector's Edition" and my heart skipped a beat. At last! A full-length, original Vampi story, hopefully by either Gon^lez or M&yo. I opened the book and discovered it was Gonzalez. Good, I started to read. "Baby Theda," I thought. "So they're bringing back an old villain. Pine, Wait a minute! This isn't acomeback! It's a rehash! What is this crap?!" Quickly looking through the book. I realized with sinking heart that the whole book was reprints, with minor art changes, of four stories out of fxuhaps the most dreadful period of Vampi's career: Vampi goes to Hollywood! Look, if you're going to give us reprints, at least draw them

some period when the quality was a bit higher. Sorry, but I hate it when the quality of the book is comout of
