Label #3718077003

by Jim Silke; cover by Dave Stevens Bettie's back! And she's right where she belongs: in all kinds of trouble! This time, it's a low-budget time machine that mistakenly transports her to ancient Egypt where she battles the High Priest of Amon Ra, assorted thugs, and a lovesick mummy twice her size. She wiggles and squirms, and even bumps and grinds, to avoid their evil clutches, but she can't avoid the inevitable: everyone falls in love with her, she loses her clothes (frequently), and gets she thrown into a "bottomless pit" to be buried alive. Jim Silke continues the story he began in Bettie Page: Spicy Adventures, with Dave Stevens as cover artist. On sale December 1 FC, 32pg (1 of 3)" Cover price $2.95.

One is responsible for a murder, the other is an unstoppable force of chaos--and they both want to take out Logan!

Sabretooth guest stars. * THE CREATORS: By writer Erik Larsen, penciler Leinil Francis Yu and inker Dexter Vines. * THE FORMAT: This 48-page shocker sports a metallic foil-stamped cover... which is pretty appropriate, if you catch our drift!
