VAMPIRELLA 1972 ANNUAL
Nov. (?) 1971
Warren Publications
Editor and Publisher: James Warren
Managing Editor: Billy Graham
Cover artist: Alain Aslan

Alain Aslan's cover art was originally intended for VAMPIRELLA's first issue, but Warren rejected it. Instead, we were gifted with an excellent rendition of the Queen of Drakulon by Frank Frazetta. This annual is considered by collectors is considered to be "somewhat scarce" according to David Horne's superb Warren encyclopedia, GATHERING HORROR.
