Dark Shadows: The Comic Strip Series Season 14: Confronting Sky!
Previously on Dark Shadows: The Comic Strip Series: Once upon a time, Angelique was married to Skyler Rumson, the most perfectest of all the men she'd ever loved (way more perfect than Barnabas, for sure). Except, under orders from Nicholas Blair, he tried to burn her to toast and she killed him because that's how Angelique handles her problems. But Elizabeth Stoddard, worried about the dark shadows that plagued her family, approached warlock Sebastian Shaw to conduct an exorcism to end all their troubles. Their troubles were ended all right ... Angelique, Quentin, and Barnabas were all displaced in time, and it was as if they'd never existed in the present. But evil has a way of creeping back, which, of course, creep back it did, and soon the dark shadows swarmed all over Collinwood again.
Now the time of the the Leviathan people has come, time traveling demons who wish to destroy the world. Sky is one of them, and Angelique has been pretending to be in love with him in order to infiltrate the cult. But have all her feelings been only a pretense ...?

If you discovered Dark Shadows in the 90s, this image was undoubtedly super familiar to you; it graced the cover of The Dark Shadows Tribute Book (which, and I don't know about you, but I used to kneel in the TV books aisle at Waldenbooks for hours perusing the episode summaries in the back of that book!), and also the first VHS of episodes released from MPI, fittingly titled "The Resurrection of Barnabas Collins."
