OH MY GOD I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS.We finally get to talk!...

OH MY GOD I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS.

We finally get to talk!  We’ve been planning this for AGES.

Okay, here’s the thing. We have been planning, at Dynamite Comics, an important step forward for pulp heroines.

I have been calling it the MONSTER MAKEOVER.

It’s a series of exciting new creative directions for the top three DYNAMITE heroines, with brand new amazing writers, stunning artists, and all designed by the best designer in the business, NICOLA SCOTT!

I don’t even know where to start. I’m excited. :)

I got to hand-pick the teams, and I gave them a starting direction, but the people we picked are unbelievable, and are KILLING it.

First, RED SONJA, my beloved redhead that I love so much, is going to be written by the AMAZING Marguerite Bennett, possibly the hottest new writer going, with beautiful, adorable art by the wonderful ANEKA. This is a whole new look for Sonja, with an INTENSE new direction. I literally can’t think of anyone I would rather have take over this title. This is going to be one of THE books for 2016. If you like A-Force, or  BOMBSHELLS, you HAVE to see what Marguerite can do with the She-Devil!

Next, and I can’t believe I’m saying this, VAMPIRELLA will go through a thrilling and hilarious new direction, totally modern…fun, funny, scary and sexy, as written by the one and only KATE LETH. We aren’t announcing the artist yet (it’s a secret) but Kate is one of the most exciting talents in comics today. She’s killing it on every book she’s working on and this is her dream project! 

Finally, the wonderfully talented FRANK BARBIERE will take over Dejah Thoris in a story I am especially proud of and can’t wait to read…the Princess of Mars loses EVERYTHING and has to reinvent herself as a woman with no family and no country, it’s almost a Miyazaki-like story, and Frank is going to DEMOLISH on this book. :)

Wrap all of that up in brand new designs for all the characters, as designed by the GREAT NICOLA SCOTT.

There’s still secrets left to reveal, but all of these books are brand new FRESH STARTS for the characters, you don’t have to have any prior knowledge at all. Just a love of thrills, fun, violence, and badassery!

I am really, REALLY excited. I don’t think this has ever been done with pulp heroines. Some hints appear in SWORDS OF SORROW, but you don’t need to have read ANY previous stories to enjoy these. 

I love the high adventure of pulp heroines. Now we have teams to bring them into this century, and I could NOT be happier.

MONSTER MAKEOVER!
