A fantastic comic book featuring an adaptation of the Frances Ford Coppela directed film Bram Stoker's Dracula, drawn by Mike Mignola, best known as the creator of Hellboy!

Vlad Dracula began life as a vicious and brutal Romanian prince who drove 30,000 Turks from Constantinople in the name of the church in 1462. But when his wife’s suicide forever damned her, he renounced God.

Hundreds of years later, in1897, a mysterious Count Dracula drew a young, ambitious lawyer named Jonathan Harker to a castle in Transylvania. If Harker can survive the strange creatures that inhabit the castle, he will return to Mina, his true love in London. However, Dracula is bound for London as well.

Scripted by comics legend Roy Thomas, with art by the stylistically dark Mike Mignola, the Coppola version of Dracula follows the Bram Stoker original more closely than earlier film versions of the tale. Each issue may also contain an “Inside Coppola’s Dracula” special feature with essays and photos related to the movie.
