Sooo classic, vintage, nostalgic... how're they gonna reimagine this character? Who else is going to try this tomorrow? Any reviews would be welcome. Sooo many beautiful variants. Sooo comixology has no previe pages not up yet - which is odd. Sooo tempted still...

I wonder how they got the rights to use the character, so long after the death of her creator.
Maybe, they convinced the current owners of the intellectual property ?
... I don't know if there are heirs.
Still, in my head, Barbarella is so associated with the style of her creator that I cannot imagine anybody else drawing her ...
