Back in hell, Purgatori must find Lucifer and force him to return her powers. But she's going to have to take a number because there are other denizens of hell with designs on killing the Lord of Lies. If the vampire goddess can overcome these obstacles, how will she ever get Lucifer to return her powers?

All the players are out in the open now, and the field’s starting to get bloody. Sacrifices are being made and heads are rolling… and now, of course, Vampirella’s finally got to face it: Purgatori’s not on her side. She’s not on the enemy’s side either. She’s on a side all her own, and the stakes are even bigger than before. Bigger than the whole world? Yeah. That’s right. And now this whole damn fight's going to have to get UGLY. We’re going to level with you: the bad guys have this one sewn up. Lilith’s won. Or… Purgatori’s won. The human world is finished. May as well pack your bags and head back to Drakulon or wherever you’re from. Unless… Vampirella’s got a surprise up her sleeve? A deadly surprise involving spectacularly gruesome mayhem? LET’S FIND OUT!

This is it! The big finish! The culmination of three miniseries! The ol’ apocalypse is here! Wait a second, the apocalypse?! Yes — turns out you can’t exactly have a war of the gods without a little ragnarok… and Purgatori’s technically a god now. Is there a way out of this that doesn’t destroy the world? Is Purgatori just going to kill everyone? Maybe! Guest-starring Vampirella, the Sacred Six, Evil Ernie, and more!

Behold... Purgatori, the vampire goddess! Born a slave in ancient Alexandria, she refused the life of servitude, rising up against her masters and claiming an unnatural power as her own. In her long life, she has dined on kings and queens, and toppled countless empires across the globe... but now, she finds herself again on her knees, a slave to her unquenchable thirst! Lucifer, the lord of Hell, has stripped Purgatori of most of her power and exiled her to Earth, where her insatiable need for blood threatens to overwhelm her sanity. Her only hope for regaining her full stature is by acquiring the Chalice of Regeneration, a cup from antiquity lost to the desert sands. But Purgatori has a rival for the prize, an old enemy with an intense grudge. And even if the vampire goddess can once again attain her former glory, can she withstand the machinations of Lucifer, the weaponsmith Cremator, and Purgatori's own blood clone?

The unholy alliance you prayed would never happen! For countless generations, the fight between good and evil has been fought, as much behind the scenes as in plain view. Unbeknownst to the world at large, one force has stood as a safeguard against the potential triumph of evil and the unleashing of the apocalypse: The 36. Now, someone is after them, a creature of evil known as Purgatori, and the only thing standing in her way is Vampirella. So with all of existence hanging in the balance, what could possibly bring these two enemies to join forces? Hint: Whatever it is, it must be really bad.

It’s always darkest before the dawn, right? Let’s tell ourselves that, because not only is Lilith getting very creative with her “corrupt the incorruptible, end the world” plan, but a powerful new player has decided to get involved for the giggles… but mostly for the Armageddon. Things are shaping up to get massively out of hand, which is the perfect time for Vampirella and Purgatori to start fighting each other instead of their enemies—not!

The Doomsday Clock ticks ever closer to Midnight--and only the SHADOW and his faithful companion MARGO LAINE can hope to hold back the hour of annihilation…
