Lady Death the queen of Bad Girl comics was created by Brian Pulido and first appeared in Eternity Comics’ Evil Ernie #1 in 1991 before appearing in her own solo title in 1992 and she is set to reappear in 2015.
Lady Death has had an erratic publishing history with Avatar owning the rights since 2005 and recently relaunching the title under their Boundless imprint before it disappeared. Now creator Pulido the former head of Chaos! Comics (most characters are now owned by Dynamite) is planning on bringing Lady Death back via his new Coffin Comics venture after reaching an agreement with Avatar. The character will be the focus of a new supernatural universe and will have a revamped look as shown in new art by Paolo Pantalena and Ula Mos.
The news was announced at NYCC with Pulido stating
“The future looks bright for my dark diva. I’m excited to reveal the next chapter in her undead life.”
The character, arguably the progenitor of the whole Bad Girl comics subgenre in the 90’s, has built a cult following over the years being popular with cosplayers and being the subject of an animated film released in 2004.
