'Barbarella' to make a comeback with comic book series

Iconic fictional character, Barbarella, is returning three decades after her last appearance in the 1968 Jane Fonda film.
Dynamite Entertainment will be reviving the beloved 1960s comic book character with the publisher revealing plans for a brand-new series written by "The Girl With All the Gifts" novelist Mike Carey, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The new series will be the first new Barbarella material since 1982's "Le Miroir aux Tempetes".
"In the 1960s, Jean-Claude Forest's Barbarella was a character who helped to define her era - the first emancipated heroine for a decade that questioned all rules and moral codes.

"I'm hugely excited to be involved in reinventing this classic and iconic character for the modern age, and introducing her to many readers who weren't even alive when she first travelled the spaceways," said Carey.
