As the evil counterpart of Vampirella, Bloodwing makes her way to the Library of reality, with the mystical book in hand, she plans to execute her goal in vanquishing the artist that holds all of reality together. 
The only thing that stands between Bloodwing and the Artist is Vampirella and a whole army of multiversal counterparts who are willing to stave off Bloodwing and her army from accomplishing rewriting reality.
Jeannine Acheson and Thomas Sniegoski write the final issue of this crossover mini-series, concluding this multiversal tale of vampiric proportions. Much of this issue is filled with sprawling battles between an army of multiversal Vampirella’s and Bloodwing’s personal guard, yet despite all of the giant scale fighting, this particular issue is a more personal issue focusing on the importance of story and legacy at its core. While the feud between Vampirella and Bloodwing is the focus on the surface, at its core, it’s a story focused on the power that stories hold beyond time and space, and how that sort of power and responsibility is carried through the hands of creators.
There’s a very Grant Morrison approach to this final issue that seems fitting for a character such as Vampirella, and that’s not to say that Grant Morrison is the first to have ever done such a thing, but he has always been very prominent when writing meta-narratives surrounding stories around characters that constantly question their existence. This final issue does something along the lines of that, especially as a fitting tribute to Vampirella’s co-creator Trina Roberts. From the climax to the end, this mini-series is wrapped up in a way that couldn’t be done any other way for Vampirella and her counterparts. Acheson and Sniegoski seem to put a lot of thought and care into this mini-series and it shows in this final issue. It’s fun, it’s enjoyable, and anyone that is a fan, whether hardcore or casual will appreciate this conclusion to this miniseries event.
Daniel Maine does a serviceable job crafting layouts full of multiversal Vampirella’s warring against armies of enemies. Maine services the story as needed and still manages to make the art walk the fine line between light and violent without leaning too much on either end of the spectrum. Maine’s art is further highlighted by Fancesca Cittarelli’s colorwork, which further enhances the layouts and adds another dimension of visual fun to the story. Much like the writing, some of the best pages of the book are in the mid to final pages where things get meta in a sweet Grant Morrison level fashion that pays tribute to Trina Robbins beautifully. If you’re a long-time fan of Vampirella, a fan of the Christopher Priest world-building of Vampirella, or a casual fan of Vampirella, there is something to appreciate for any and all fans of the character. This was an enjoyable conclusion that is worth adding to your pull list for new comic book day.
