Murray (later Murray Publishers) from March 1974 to October 1978. It reprints stories from the original Warren Publishing \u003cem\u003eVampirella\u003c\/em\u003e magazine (and related titles), presented in black and white interiors with glossy colour covers (often adapted, recolored, or mirrored from US originals). Frank Frazetta images were frequently used for promotional material and interior pages across many issues. Magazine size, saddle-stitched binding, newsprint paper. Rated “M for the Mature Reader”. One of Australia’s longest-running and most popular horror reprint titles of the 1970s, capitalizing on the popularity of Vampirella in the Australian market. The series ended in late 1978.
