Elvira Comic Book Writer David Avallone Shares the Order in Which the Elvira Comics Take Place

Elvira rides a bat on the cover of the trade paperback second volume of "Elvira, Mistress of the Dark."

Ever since Dynamite Entertainment and Elvira, Mistress of the Dark teamed up in 2017, there have been several new comic book releases featuring the iconic horror hostess. With the recent announcement of the new series “Elvira in Horrorland,” there are now a total of four series and three specials from Dynamite featuring the Mistress of the Dark. While each features its own story arc, Elvira comic book writer David Avallone recently shared that there is, in fact, a continuity and order to the books.

Shared during an interview about the new crowdfunded special, “The Death of Elvira,” Avallone shared that the order of the various comic book series and specials is as follows:

  1. Elvira, Mistress of the Dark #1-12
  2. The Shape of Elvira #1-4
  3. Elvira, Mistress of the Dark: Omega Ma’am
  4. Elvira, The Wrath of Con
  5. The Death of Elvira
  6. Elvira Meets Vincent Price #1-5
  7. The upcoming “Elvira in Horrorland” series

While obviously, released a bit out of order, if fans wanted to follow the timeline in which the stories occur, this would be the way to read them. You can watch the full interview with David Avallone, where he shares more about the upcoming “The Death of Elvira” comic, including how they’re tactfully addressing the look of the titular character at much younger stages in her life below:
