Comic artwork by Tom Sutton for Vampirella #1

 

 

686. Original complete comic artwork by Tom Sutton for Vampirella #1. An incredible opportunity to own all seven of the original 14 x 21 in. hand-drawn pages of artwork to the famous story that features the very first appearance of one of the most popular horror icons and pop culture sex symbols in modern history: VAMPIRELLA! Created and written by horror legend Forrest J Ackerman, and drawn by fan-favorite comic book artist Tom Sutton, Vampirella took the world by storm in 1969 with her unique combination of "sex symbol-meets-space vampire" appeal starring in her own best-selling magazine. Fans ate it up, and her character went on to become the subject of countless comics, books, cards, posters, films, merchandising, and continues to be a popular fan-favorite to this day. This artwork has been in Forrest J Ackerman's personal collection since its initial publication, as he was ever so proud of his prized creation. First appearances of major pop culture icon characters almost never come up for public auction, and this is one we truly feel is noteworthy on many different levels of both horror and sci-fi. $10,000 - $15,000
