Vampirella was created in 1969 by Forrest J. Ackerman for Warren Publishing's black and white horror anthology magazine of the same name.
Line 12 ⟶ 11:
----
* [[Action Girl]] / [[Dark Action Girl]]
* [[Animesque]]: The Vampi series (not to be confused with "Vampi" as a nickname for Vampirella), which was an Animesque version of Vampirella that went in its own direction.
* [[Back From the Dead]]: Completely absent in the Warren times. Often enough in the Harris run (up to the point that the last time the creators killed her, afterwards they didn't even bother to [[Sarcasm Mode|properly]] [[Hand Wave|revive her]]). Dynamite yet had no opinion on the matter.
* [[Dark Is Not Evil]]: Vampi may give off the vibe of a sexy, evil creature, but she only saves her rage for the bad guys.
Line 25 ⟶ 23:
** And she comes from the planet Drakulon. This was later justified: Dracula got his name from the place, rather than the other way around.
* [[Most Common Superpower]]
* [[Our Vampires Are Different]]: Originally, she was from a planet covered with natural streams of blood and populated by vampires, and as a natural creature was not affected by holy items and could not convert people into vampires. When she was later retconned into a supernatural creature, she still was not affected by many of the things that traditionally affect vampires.
* [[Stripperific]]: Her signature red outfit, complete with [[Absolute Cleavage]].
* [[Vampires Are Sex Gods]]: Well, ''yeah'', just ''look'' at her!
* [[Weirdness Censor]]: Very few people seem to notice or remark on her omnipresent red outfit, and when they do it's quickly handwaved.
* [[Big Bad]]: Dracula and Chaos
* [[Continuity Snarl]]: Three different comic companies didn't make it better. If you haven't noticed yet, you probably were too busy staring at her costume :-)
** In the Warren years, the origin was that she was from another planet, Drakulon. In the Harris years this was changed to her being the daughter of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lilith Lilith] but there were multiple variations even during that one company which varied on such facts as whether Lilith repented, what her reason was for raising Vampirella as good assuming she didn't repent, whether Lilith was in the Garden of Eden or in Hell, and some minor details such as where Vampirella's costume comes from.
