Elissa Galland

A creature of the Bronze Age's wilder, more experimental fringe, Elissa Galland made her debut in 1975's Planet of Vampires #1, launched by Seaboard — one of the era's bold independent publishers swinging for the fences alongside the Big Two. Brought to life by the talented team of Larry Hama and Pat Broderick, she inhabits a world dark enough to put "vampires" right there in the title, sharing her harrowing pages with Captain Chris Galland, Brenda, and Craig. With only a handful of appearances, she's a genuine rarity — a Bronze Age curio for the collector who loves hunting the overlooked corners of comics history where some of the decade's most daring storytelling quietly happened.
