Legenderry To Spin-Off Into Three New Titles Staring Red Sonja, Vampirella and Green Hornet

Dynamite Entertainment has announced that the steampunk-themed Legenderry alternate universe will expand to include three new spin-off series: Red Sonja, Vampirella, and Green Hornet. Building upon the characters reimagined by Bill Willingham, the creator of Fables, in the 2014 miniseries Legenderry: A Steampunk Adventure, the new Legenderry stories will feature the writing talents of confirmed writers David Avallone and Daryl Gregory, and continue themes and plotlines devised by Willingham.

Legenderry: A Steampunk Adventure debuted on December 31st, 2013, introducing a parallel universe where familiar Dynamite-published characters were reinvented with Victorian aesthetics and steam-powered technology.

In Legenderry: Vampirella, written by Avallone, the raven-haired Madam Pendragon – as the popular heroine is known publicly in the alternate universe – will see a departure from her role as owner and operator of The Scarlet Club, and instead must fight her way through The Big City, falling in love, dying, and being reborn in the process.

Legenderry: Green Hornet, written by Gregory, will entertain readers with a concept that's equal parts Gangs of New York and The Warriors. In the aftermath of Willingham's original story, The Big City has a power vacuum… giving a new selection of colorful, gimmick-laden lawbreakers a chance to claim the city as their own. Enter the Green Hornet and Kato, whose fabricated reputations as criminals give them ground-level access to the chaos.

Details on the upcoming Legenderry: Red Sonja are currently considered confidential.  However, since the She-Devil with a Sword was the core of the previous storyline (both in her amnesiac identity as the sophisticated Magna Spadarossa, and as her swashbuckling true Red Sonja self), her series will be an integral part of the greater Legenderry universe.

Dynamite Entertainment's Legenderry spin-off titles will be solicited in an upcoming issue of Diamond Comic Distributors' Previews catalog.
