Wednesday's mail day brought in an absolute stunner — and one of the most elegant Lady Death variants in my entire collection.
📘 Title: Lady Death: Dragon Wars #1
💎 Edition: Temptress Edition
🧾 Print Run: Limited to only 100 copies
📌 My Copy: #69/100
🎨 Cover Artist: (Temptress Edition Artist – commonly attributed to Mike DeBalfo / various Coffin artists depending on the run. If you’d like, I can confirm the exact creator.)
🔥 Why This Variant Stands Out
This Temptress Edition captures Lady Death in a hauntingly serene gothic setting — moonlit trees, shadowed wings, and that iconic temptation motif symbolized by the crimson apple. It's the perfect fusion of dark fantasy and sensual mystique that defines Coffin Comics’ strongest visual storytelling.
The grayscale palette with deep violet accents highlights the seduction-and-danger aesthetic of Lady Death’s world, while the wings and setting tie back beautifully to the supernatural tone of Dragon Wars.
This is exactly the kind of cover that reminds me why Lady Death variants have such a devoted collector base — they’re not just comic books; they’re art pieces.
🩶 Collector’s Notes
-
Extremely low print run (100 copies) makes this one a true display piece.
-
Numbered on the cover, adding authenticity and scarcity.
-
Part of the Dragon Wars storyline, a fan-favorite arc that blends mythic conflict with Lady Death’s ever-evolving lore.
-
High-end Lady Death variants like this tend to retain value due to both scarcity and the dedicated collector market.
