The Vampress Luxura
(Brainstorm, 1996)
™ and ©1996 Brainstorm Comics
This one-shot special serves as an introduction to the world of the Vampress Luxura. Luxura, who first appeared in Vamperotica #1, is an ancient and powerful vampire who lives in a series of underground caverns somewhere in America. As the special informs us, her hobbies (when not stalking humans or other vampires) include reading, pool, archery, and a good game of chess.
She’s also the most extensive “wine” collector in existence, with a huge cellar containing wine bottles filled with the blood of those she has collected. Each is labeled with the name and picture of the person whose blood is inside.
In this one-shot, she adds a new bottle to her collection: the blood of a four-armed alien named Gilgus Fontigore, who had the audacity to break into her castle and try to steal Luxura’s scrolls from the Trihexicon (a book of ancient lore).
