Eerie
Another classic magazine from the Warren Publishing stable, Eerie preceded Vampirella by several years. Eerie's format was that of a collection of horror stories which strayed occasionally into the realms of Science Fiction, and almost nudged into the spandex heavy super hero universe.
Many world famous artists and writers served their apprenticeship in Eerie (and Warren's sister magazine Creepy).
Issues #94 and #95 of Eerie featured a crossover story with Vampirella, Pantha etc joining up with Restin Dane (the time-travelling Rook), and issue #130 featured a full length story with just about every character in the Warren universe.

Issue 94 (August 1978)Cover: Don Maitz The Rook: The Coming of the Annihilator [Luis Bermejo/ Bill DuBay]
Military weapons tests causes an egg to hatch that contains a creature that drains energy - an Annihilator. Restin Dane is called in to help stop the beast, but fails to do so. Returning from space, Vampirella and Pantha offer to help, and suggest returning in time to a period before the Annihilator egg is planted, and deal with it then. Dane, Pantha and Vampirella leave for one million years B.C. as the military prepare to storm Dane's base in the mistaken belief that aliens have captured it.
