Vampyrates! #1 by Fred Van Lente, Luca Pizzari and Adam Guzowski. Cover by Pizzari. Variant covers by (2) Rebeca Puebla, (3) Bengal and (4) Tula Lotay. Out in July.

"Through the darkness of the thousand-year eclipse they sail, seeking adventure, treasure — and blood!

In a world ruled by vampires, Empress Nira of the Night Isles has always cared more for sword-fighting and carousing than ruling. But when she escapes a vicious coup by stowing aboard VMS Abyss, a pirate ship run by the mysterious Captain Akeyo, she gets more than she can handle of both.

She must rise through the ranks of the Vampyrates from lowly swab to queen of the Sea of Night — so the oceans will run red with her vengeance!"

Vampyrates! #2 by Fred Van Lente, Luca Pizzari and Adam Guzowski. Variant covers by (1) Rebeca Puebla and (2) Pizzari. Main cover by Pizzari. Out in August.

"The adventure takes to the high seas as Nira attempts to flee for her life!

Nira may have escaped the usurpers of her throne by stowing away on a pirate ship, but she’s not out of danger yet.

The ship’s captain seems to hate her for her own mysterious reasons, and suddenly it’s all hands-on deck for the onetime empress!

Will it be execution by way of a stake through the heart? Dying in a blast of sulphury cannon fire? Or can Nira figure out a way to survive this next round?"
