Overview

Vampirella, Vol. 2 #8 (Dynamite Entertainment, 2015) delivers a bold entry in The Accursed storyline, written by Nancy A. Collins with art by Patrick Berkenkotter and cover art by Mike Mayhew.

In this second installment, Vampirella helps The Kabal track down “The Good Doctor”—the legendary Dr. Faustus. Their hunt takes them to India, where Faustus is advancing his ominous plan with a weapon he calls the 'black rabies'—a deadly virus that fuses supernatural curses with a natural disease, turning those infected into homicidal maniacs. Can Vampirella locate the mad doctor before he unleashes this mutant contagion on the population of one of the world’s most populous countries? And will she be able to trust her new allies once they get their hands on Faustus’ research?
