Vampirella: Feary Tales
Nancy A. Collins (Swamp Thing, Sunglasses After Dark) has called upon some of today's finest creative talents - including Gail Simone, Steve Niles, Joe R. Lansdale, Devin Grayson, Stephen R. Bissette, and many more - to celebrate Vampirella's 45th Anniversary by crafting an anthology of twisted tales, bizarre bedtime stories, and fearsome fables in the tradition of the original Warren magazines, each featuring everyone's favorite sexy, kick-ass vampire-turned-monster hunter. While exploring the Transylvanian castle she's recently inherited, Vampirella discovers a strange old book of "Feary Tales" that seems oddly familiar. Upon opening it, she is sucked inside its pages and lands in a weird alternate reality, where she is compelled by a disembodied voice calling itself 'The Storyteller' to live out each of the 'feary tales' if she ever hopes to return to reality.

So I was interested in this because of Gail Simone. This book follows Vampirella who after having defeating Lord Drago, King of the Nosferatu finds a book "Feary Tales" and she is pulled into it. She has to live through the tales in the book to find her way back home. These tales are a twist to the traditional fairy tales, some of which include Snow White, Cinderella, little red riding hood, and Hansel and Gretel. I received a copy from NetGalley.
