We don't talk enough about how good Chris Condon and Montos are doing on #GreenArrow right now. Montos art compliments Chris's moody scripts. You can tell both men are having the time of their lives.

This cover by Lucio Parillo over at @dynamitecomicshq.bsky.social makes me feel like a cartoon wolf with my eyes bulging out going AWOOGA (complimentary)

An oil painting by Lucio Parillo for the cover of Vampirella 5 by Christopher Priest, published by Dynamite Entertainment. Features her in 3/4 body with her arms crossed and what looks to be some kind of blue magic flowing from one hand and purple from the other, with some creepy eye in the background. It's rendered beautifully, super gorgeous art with a fun play on colors and lighting.

This was SUCH a surprise to me and I'm beyond excited. I do wish they'd reprint the 8 issue run from Ditko in the 70's but this comic is iconic for a reason and I'm psyched to get it in hardcover on my shelves 🥰
