Comments: Elvira is making a movie when something in her trailer is going on. Elvira is presented from the start just as you have come to expect, she is fun and exciting with a touch of the supernatural. She is illustrated as one spooky beauty. She is still the woman with the mostest especially up top.
Her adventure does land her in a place most unexpected. She gets to meet a literary great. The setting is gothic and creepy.
A warrior makes his appearance. He is a striking figure in armor.
Having Elvira breaking the forth wall is great. It does add humor to the issue. The sexual innuendo is fun and it being so out of place in the time period makes it even more fun to see.
Elvira and her magic time traveling coffin, that is certainly new and it takes her on to another literary great.
This comic has a few nice new twists and keeps the parts of Elvira you all love. No not those two parts. Her personality is so enjoyable.
Elvira is back and she is still the mostest.

Comments: Elvira meets Edgar Allan Poe and both are illustrated perfectly. Edgar looks the writer type and Elvira looks like Elvira. She is drawn well endowed and with her trademark hair style.
Elvira knows she is in a comic which adds a nice touch of humor. This is a horror type tale but the humor keeps it light heated.
Dracula now he makes for a serious antagonist. Good old Vlad the Impaler. Elvira, Poe and Vlad on a carriage at night now this makes for a sight you do not see every day.
Now this is the only place you will ever see a time travelling coffin. Elvira is meeting various famous real people from the history of literary horror. So who will be next?
Elvira no matter where or when she is she knows how to have a good time. You will to with this comic.

Comments: Elvira meets Bram Stoker. They do have a fun repartee.
The way Elvira talks directly to you the reader is so entertaining.
Now Bram Stoker gets to meet Vlad the Impaler this is an epic meeting. Elvira is all that stands between them. Well also Bram's beautiful wife whom Vlad wants as his wife. Why the story goes in that direction there is no real reason for. Than that part is forgotten.
Elvira and Bram face off against each other but have no idea why or who is making this happen. Where did the time traveling coffin come from? Why are Elvira and Vlad being pitted against each other? Lots of questions.
Elvira is drawn wit her ample assets.
This issue things get turned upside down and lots of surprises are introduced. Elvira through it all stays calm and looks gorgeous.
We are left with one big mystery why Elvira? Why was she picked to go on this adventure?

Comments: Breaking the fourth wall was never done this strangely before.
Elvira is on set to meet Frankenstein's Monster and his Bride. Faust comes and goes and Dracula shows up to chase after Elvira.
Dracula the Vampire King is made fun of here. In one way it is pathetic and in another with Elvira doing it it is sort of fun.
Elvira looks so gorgeous in her traditional dress. It does fit her in all the right places.
The story there is not much to it as she just runs around movie sets being chased by a lame Dracula.
Elvira has fun until its time to give the devil his due quite literally for Faustus and Elvira gets to go along for the ride.
It is a strange story with one beautiful hostess with the mostess.
