She’s a heartbreaker and a slayer! The iconic bad girl Chastity is back in a new limited series from Dynamite this September 2019. Leah Williams (Gwenpool, Vampirella/Dejah Thoris) will be writing the series, with her infamous energy translating well into the Chaos! mythos. She’s joined by artist Daniel Maine (Robyn Hood).

Chastity is a young punk rock fan turned vampire, who has made it her mission to hunt and slay her fellow occult beings. In this new entry to the Chaos! universe, Chastity has been kidnapped while auditioning for a prestigious burlesque show. She wakes up surrounded by other young women in chains on a spooky cruise ship. Her captors have made a grave mistake, and they will learn that through Chastity’s grindhouse rampage to free herself and her fellow victims.

For this awaited return of Chastity in her own series, a handful of artists are contributing covers. This includes Clayton Crain (Vemon), Nick Bradshaw (Wolverine & the X-Men), Catherine Nodet (X-Files), David Nakayama (Ant-Man & the Wasp), Jay Anacleto (Vampirella/Dejah Thoris) and a special J. Scott Campbell “Carve Out” cover calling back to the start of the Dynamite Chaos! era.

“Chastity’s fascinating. She’s one of western comics’ original hottie bad girls,” said Williams. “Even just from a technical standpoint, she’s an interesting character to work with – she comes with this rich lore and years of history from her original run through Chaos! Comics, and got a fresh start at Dynamite introducing her to new generations of comics fans. She’s a goth-punk half-vampire badass, but there’s also something bombastic and high-energy about her brand of justice in particular – she’s got attitude. This miniseries will be a lot of fun, and Daniel is the perfect artist for delivering a really kinetic and dynamic adventure with her.” 

“This book is a challenge I couldnt let pass. Id read Leahs previous work and was excited to work with her. Im sure we can provide a new epic chapter in the story of this strong female character,” Maine added.

“Leah Williams is the perfect voice for this franchise because through her other work and antics with the community and fans, she mirrors many of those Chaos! qualities. Check out Danies turnarounds and you can see the art that will be coming! Were proud to have these creators helping to kick off the 25th anniversary and fans are going to love what she and Daniel have in store,” said Nick Barrucci, Dynamite CEO and Publisher. 

Chastity #1 will be solicited in Diamond Comic Distributors’ July 2019 PREVIEWS catalog, slated for release in September 2019. Fans can preorder copies with their local comic book retailers. It will also be available for individual customer purchase through many digital platforms.
