Bloodsucker's Planet
In this '60s retro prequel to the bizarro-noir Bloodsucker's Handbook, Bloodsucker's Planet follows the crew of the space ship Argosy as they respond to a distress signal from the industrial Planet Mara only to discover the planet is ruled by the sinister Mother Vampire. Along the way, they encounter disease-carrying Mara bats, a talking space roach, and Adrianna, the gynoid whose developing self-awareness is aided by her collection of vintage romance comics.

This second installment in the Condu the Vampire series is slightly less weird than the original, but still quirky and skirts right up to the edge of camp without -- I hope -- quite entering that realm.
