ReVamp Vampirella and Win!
Contest offers up Vampirella-themed prizes for character redesign
This is pretty much the contest that defines the term "revamp," folks. Harris Comics and the Project: Rooftop crew are looking for aspiring artists to redesign the buxom bombshell Vampirella and win a variety of prizes provided by the Vampirella publisher. Vampirella is celebrating her 40th anniversary next year (not bad for a 40-something, eh?) and interested artists can win the following:
Grand Prize (1) -
The winning entry will appear as a pinup in a future issue of Vampirella, and receive two comics signed respectively by Joe Jusko and Dan Brereton.Second Prize (1) -
A Vampirella wall poster illustrated by Jose Gonzalez, and receive two comics signed respectively by Joe Jusko and Dan Brereton.Third Prize (1) -
A Vampirella T-shirt illustrated by Stephen Segovia, and receive two comics signed respectively by Joe Jusko and Dan Brereton.In addition to these prizes, the finalists selected by the judges will also be up on a fan poll at Vampirella.com for the "Fan Selection" prize of a limited edition Vampirella print.
The judges for the contest are a trio of notable Vampirella names, including original Vampirella costume designer Trina Robbins, frequent series artist Joe Jusko and upcoming Vampirella Quarterly artist Dan Brereton. Send in your submissions to projectrooftop@gmail.com, with the subject line: "ReVamp" -- and keep your fingers crossed.

Wow, comics herstorian Trina Robbins (and I assume the possessor of the "Elayne Riggs Trademarked Female Gaze") designed the original Vampirella costume! And she's a judge of this contest too. Cool. I wonder if Trina Robbins would design a Vampirella Paper Doll set. Somebody else should design the Vampirella Inflatable Doll.
