Blood of Dracula

™ and ©i988 Apple Press ltd.

Ever since Bram Stoker, the vampire known as Dracula has been haunting the world’s dreams. The subject of countless books, movies, and comics, it would seem that there would be little you could add to his legend. Still, Apple Comics does just that in Blood of Dracula.

The series runs as a serial anthology, featuring three stories in each issue. In them we see Dracula throughout the ages: hunting for blood in his native land or stalking the streets of America. In one story set in the 1930s, he comes across a moonshiner who is actually a werewolf, and who has been creating other werewolves by putting filings from his teeth into the libations he distributes. The wildest concept is Dracula in 2199, where the Lord of the Vampires awakens after a long sleep to find himself in a world ruled by cold, hard science and populated by advanced robots. That world has forgotten the mystical —but Dracula is determined to show them fear!
