For the first time in 112 years the tale that Bram Stoker intended to tell is told (including 'Dracula's Guest'!). If you thought you knew how it began or how it ends, you were wrong! Writers John Reppion and Leah Moore are joined by painter Colton Worley for a 5 issue odyssey of life, death, and the blood that flows within us all! Moore and Reppion also provide bonus material such as script pages, annotations and samplings of the original text by Bram Stoker!

Based upon the original novel by Bram Stoker, writers Leah Moore and John Reppion have crafted a dense, atmospheric, and faithful adaptation of the most powerful and heralded horror novel of all time!

While its legions of readers - generation after generation - think they are familiar with the story of Count Dracula and his terror-filled reign across England, what they may not know is that the original publication altered the very beginning and end of Stoker's novel, Now, these missing elements have been worked into this DYNAMITE adaptation for The Complete Dracula!
Joining the writers is painter Colton Worley, new to the world of comics, being introduced by Dynamite! A talented painter who perfectly complements the moody script with his dark and atmospheric vision of Dracula and the world around him.

This fully painted series features a massive 40 pages of story and art and additional material per issue, each page fully-painted in a rich, moody style by Worley, all under covers by modern master John Cassaday! Moore and Reppion also provide bonus material such as script pages, annotations and samplings of the original text by Bram Stoker!
