Comic Kingdom of Canada Exclusive Cover by Jay Ferguson. Written by Christopher Priest. Art by Michael Sta. Maria. One child, two destinies: who is the daughter of Lilith of Drakulon? Is she a streetwise runaway human preteen, or is she Vampirella's deadly siren nightstalker evil twin? Two souls linked by a reality-jumping demon struggle for control of their own destiny as Draculina, Lilith's first and most beloved daughter, is brought into Vampirella's reality and linked to an alternate version of herself by a cursed candle which warps reality when lit, swapping Draculina with her other possible 'self'-a tough homeless preteen struggling to make it on her own while being constantly drawn into Draculina's schemes. Establishing a secret identity for herself as 'River East', high-profile socialite daughter of the missing and presumed dead Lilith Ogden Eastaughffe, Draculina presses forth with a secret, evil agenda of bloody retribution against everyone who's ever done her wrong, with only Katie-her alt-self-standing between her and her deadly goals.

Invincible (2003 Image) 2WHATNOT.A CGC 9.8

Paper: White

Whatnot Edition.

Label #4416265019

Whatnot Collectibles exclusive Cover by Tyler Kirkham. (W) Robert Kirkman (A) Cory Walker. In stores the week of February 12th. The Concept: Mark Grayson is just like most everyone else his age. He's a senior at a normal American high School. He has a crappy part time job after school and on weekends. He likes girls quite a bit, but doesn't quite understand them. He enjoys hanging out with his friends, and sleeping late on Saturdays, at least until the good cartoons come on. The only difference between Mark and everyone else, is that his father is the most powerful superhero on the planet, and as of late, he seems to be inheriting his father's powers. Which sounds okay at first, but how do you follow in your father's footsteps when you know you will never live up to his standards? This Issue: Mark has come down with a case of insomnia, and while most people would trot down to the living room to watch infomercials, Mark, being a superhero, has a few more entertaining options. During his leisurely evening flight, he spots a robbery in progress at the local Toys R Toys. But why would a villain like the dreaded Ogre want to steal an entire shipment of Game Boxes? And why is the world's premier teenaged super team on hand to help Invincible stop him? And when did that girl in 3rd period science class get so cute? Nothing is what it seems, and everything seems like it's nothing, but one thing's for sure, it's entertaining as all get out! FC, 32pp$2.95Ongoing monthly series
