Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, is returning in an all-new monthly comic book series, and this time she’s bringing with her an old friend, horror legend Vincent Price.
The two titans of terror and comedy unite in comics for the very first time as Dynamite Entertainment proudly presents Elvira Meets Vincent Price! The ghost of Price has a mission that only the macabre maven can assist him with. The apocalypse is coming, and it’s heading straight to livestreaming for binge-watching! Leave it to a fabled lost film to save the day, if only our horror hostess and spectral companion can find it in time.
Writer David Avallone (“Bettie Page,” “Drawing Blood”) returns to capture the timeless voice of Elvira and taps into his own history and love for Old Hollywood and film to bring Vincent Price along for the ride this time. With over three years and countless issues of experience working right alongside Elvira herself and putting words in her mouth, fans will be happy to see his return. This time he’s joined for the first time by artist Juan Samu (“Black Panther,” “Transformers”). The cast is rounded out by returning colorist Walter Pereyra and letterer Taylor Esposito.
Avallone shared, “Writing Vincent Price is a gift. On-screen and off, he’s an indelible character, and it’s delightful to write in his “voice,” just as it is to write in Elvira’s. He’s charming and elegant and hilarious… and, as in real life, a perfect foil for Elvira. I recommend fans Googling their talk show appearances together.”
Elvira Meets Vincent Price #1 is slated for an August 2021 release and can be pre-ordered through your local comic book shop. It will also be available for individual customer purchase through digital platforms courtesy of Comixology, Kindle, iBooks, Google Play, Dynamite Digital, ComicsPlus, and more!
