Dynamite Entertainment is delivering a new dose of pulp action this spring. The publisher has announced Giant-Sized Savage Tales, an oversized special arriving in April for fans of savage storytelling and classic adventure.
The release brings together some of Dynamite’s biggest characters in an expanded format designed for longtime readers and new audiences.
David Avallone Returns to Pulp Storytelling
Writer David Avallone leads the project. He is known for his work on Elvira: Mistress of the Dark, Bettie Page, and other popular series.
Avallone returns to his pulp roots with a 40-page special featuring four hard-hitting chapters. The issue blends Dynamite’s top female heroes with icons from the pulp era. Three artists join him to deliver fast-paced, high-impact storytelling.
Mariano Benitez-Chapo Continues Key Storylines
Recent Kubert School graduate Mariano Benitez-Chapo continues his collaboration with Avallone.
He illustrates two stories in the issue. One advances the “His War” arc for Captain Gullivar Jones. The other centers on the Daughter of Drakulon. That story delivers “Vampirella Noir,” a haunting and atmospheric take on the character.
Red Sonja and Allan Quatermain Take the Spotlight
Artist Pasquale Qualano provides artwork for “Red Sonja: The Exile.” The story showcases the She-Devil With a Sword in a dramatic solo adventure.
Sebastián Píriz closes the issue with “The Last Allan Quatermain Story.” His distinctive style brings Avallone’s latest pulp tale to a strong and energetic finish.
Variant Covers and Collector Options
Dynamite is also releasing a new lineup of variant covers for the special.
Bjorn Barends contributes two covers in his signature style featuring Red Sonja and Vampirella. Model Ivy Cosplay appears in costume for individual character images and a digitally edited team-up shot.
Collectors can also purchase a mystery blind bag edition. Each bag includes three limited-edition variants selected at random from covers exclusive to the program.
Giant-Sized Savage Tales arrives in April from Dynamite Entertainment, offering expanded storytelling, fan-favorite characters, and collectible editions for pulp and action fans.
