Vampirella
Marta del Castillo is deemed ugly by everyone including herself. Despite being a brilliant young PhD chemistry professor, Marta desires the kind of life her looks deny her. One night, Marta makes a concoction in lab that turns her into a beautiful redhead. She kills a university guard who catches her before going dancing with two stockbrokers. To her dismay, her appearance reverts to normal after 2-3 hours forcing her to flee a lover's apartment to return to the lab. Marta navigates through the police investigating her earlier murder to make more serum so she can become Vampirella again.

Translated from the back cover:

UNITED FOR PROGRESS

The editors of newspapers, books and magazines of the Mexican Republic, members of the National Chamber of the Publishing Industry, congratulate themselves on the great electoral triumph of Mr. LIC, LUIS ECHEVERRIA ALVAREZ, whose proven honesty and capacity, recognized attachment to the 1917 Constitution that governs us and respect for freedom of expression, which is a firm belief in him, guarantee the country a period of prosperity based on law and justice.
