Vincent Price and Elvira Team Up in a New Comic Series ELVIRA MEETS VINCENT PRICE
Dynamite Entertainment has released a cool new comic book series that will see Elvira, the Mistress of the Dark, team up with Vincent Price, the Master of the Macabre. The comic is titled Elvira Meets Vincent Price, and it will see these two horror icons unite for the very time. Sure, it may be in comic book form, but it still seems like it’ll tell a fun story!
Here’s the synopsis that was provided:
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 live-streaming 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.
Though this new history-making crossover is perfect to jump right into for Elvira newcomers, Dynamite has released several graphic novels for fans to dive deeper into the hostess with the mostest's adventures. Elvira loves to show off and though you can't judge a book by its cover, we make them extra pretty! Longtime Elvira artist Dave Acosta returns for one, as does fan-favorite pinup artist John Royle, as well as ones by Juan Samu and of course a stunning photo of the lady herself - Elvira, Mistress of the Dark!"
The first issue features cover art created by Dave Acosta, John Royle, series artist Juan Samu and “a stunning photo of the gorgeous lady herself – Elvira!” Vincent Price is one of my all-time favorite actors. The guy was just so damn fun to watch in everything that he made! It’s cool to see a comic like this bring him back for a new story.
The first issue will be available on August 4, 2021. Check out some art from the comic below.
