Comments: We see in the chilling art why Dracula is called the Impaler. He is also referred to as thVoivodede meaning Ruler. He is a hard man he has to be to protect his people.
Dracula seeks help to make him more powerful and Marta Tigan a black magic witch is who he seeks out. The art brings out Marta’s ancient evil in her appearance. Her evil changes to a dark beauty. Dracula must pay a price for her help.
There is full nudity so this is a mature book.
Dracula has a meeting with the Devil. Here along with a few others Dracula is offered knowledge. In the Devi,l’s library Dracula learns much. Dracula’s attitude never changes he is always an evil presence looking to increase his power.
Here we see how Danacula became an undead vampire. He is the first of his kind and his evil is set free on the Earth. The Devil has a new minion to spread his fear and loathing. Dracula was made to spread terror in the land.
Castle Dracula is a sight worth seeing. Its walls are high and foreboding. Then you will see the pin-up page of Dracula himself and you will know fear.
Matt Wagner delivers a story that will terrorize you with this iconic fiend. Kelley Jones delivers a frightening aspect in his art here that will give you nightmares.
