Kirk Lindo is the creator, artist and publisher of The VAMPEROTICA and VAMPRESS LUXURA comic series, one of the longest-running vampire characters in comics history. In April of 1994, Kirk Lindo launched his highly successful vampire anthology comic, Vamperotica. The comic featured the first appearance of Luxura, The Ultimate Vampire Queen. Luxura’s unique hair, voluptuous curves, and insatiable thirst for the blood of men and women instantly captivated readers and built a worldwide fan base. The series also featured an amazing collection of genre-expanding vampire stories. Lindo’s visionary approach to comic publishing during the ‘90s built the Luxura/Vamperotica brand by expanding the properties into other mediums, including magazines, movies, statues, trading cards, and music. The original Vamperotica comic series ran for 50 issues, and Vamperotica #1 has an unprecedented 3 printings, an impressive accomplishment from an independent publisher competing in the same market as the big companies. 2024 marks the 30th anniversary of The Vampress Luxura’s first appearance in the pages of Vamperotica #1 Kirk began creating and publishing comics in the 4th grade when he would draw on pages of loose-leaf paper, fold them, staple them, and share the comics with his friends. This lifelong passion led him later in life to become a student at the School of Visual Art in Manhattan, New York, where he had the rare privilege of learning sequential art from comics legend, Will Eisner. After college, Kirk held executive positions as an Art Director, Marketing Manager, Editor In Chief, and Senior Vice President of Product Development for several advertising and publishing firms. In addition to his work as a comic book artist, Lindo is also a published writer, having penned numerous stories and scripts for various comic book titles. His storytelling prowess complements his artistic talents, allowing him to craft compelling narratives that resonate with audiences. Beyond his creative endeavors, Lindo is also an entrepreneur with a keen business acumen. He has founded his own publishing company, providing a platform for aspiring artists to showcase their work and reach a wider audience. Through his company, Lindo has published a diverse array of comics, further enriching the industry with fresh perspectives and voices. Lindo’s passion for comics extends beyond his professional pursuits, as he is also actively involved in the comic book community. He participates in conventions, workshops, and events, sharing his knowledge and experience with fellow enthusiasts and aspiring artists. As a visionary artist and entrepreneur, Kirk Lindo continues to push the boundaries of creativity and innovation in the comic book industry, leaving a lasting legacy as both a creator and a mentor. His dedication to his craft and his commitment to fostering talent make him a true icon in the world of comics. Lindo’s contributions to the indy comic genre, particularly through “Vampress Luxura,” have cemented his reputation as a unique and influential creator in the comic book industry._________________________________________________________The Vampress Luxura first appeared in the pages of the original Vamperotica anthology comic series. This trade paperback collects stories that are part of the Legends of Luxura and Red Reign Chronicles storylines. Created by artist, writer, and publisher Kirk Lindo, The Vampress Luxura is a centuries-old vampire who has built a kingdom that spreads across the four corners of the Earth. Her monarchy is overseen from her vast labyrinthine estate below the city of Manhattan, New York. Her complex consists of caverns and underground castles, with several trophy rooms and an extensive system of tunnels leading to many above-ground locations. Some of these locations are business establishments owned by the Vampress. In her subterranean manor, Luxura has an enormous Blood Vault resembling a wine cellar. The vault houses thousands of bottles containing the blood of humans, Kith, and supernaturals that Luxura has been collecting for over 1,000 years. Each bottle is labeled with a picture of the person whose blood is inside; some of the older bottles have hand-drawn pictures, while the newer bottles have photographs. This blood collection includes almost every conceivable historical figure, from Julius Caesar to John F. Kennedy. Luxura did not personally collect all this blood; some of it she purchased or received as gifts. Other vampires also collect blood, but Luxura?s collection is the greatest of all. Her collection is preserved by a magic spell and talisman, keeping the blood as fresh as the day it was first bled. Many in the Kith leadership often wonder why she is so obsessed with the collection and storage of blood. As a Judicious Kith (Vampire), Luxura works to maintain the vampire community?s three Edicts: Sustain the Blood Source (Mortals), Regulate the Kith (Vampires), and Maintain Discretion.
