Foreign Vampirella Differences
One of the interesting things about foreign comics is the modification the publishers made for local
distribution. For example, for the #1 in Brazil and Argentina, you can see they added a bra to cover
Vampirella’s breasts so it wouldn’t be so revealing.

Another modification
can be observed here,
on the original # the girl
on cover didn’t wear
the Vampirella costume, but on the copy
from Spain, it’s there.
Foreign publishers
tended to alter artwork
for their own reasons.
Whether it be for
censorship, like the
example above, or
editorial reasons like
in Spain to the right.
