NOSFERATU COMIC BOOK #1!


OUT OF PRINT. HARD TO FIND FIRST ISSUE COLLECTOR'S ITEM

This item was never available for sale in any mass market retail outlet and could only be purchased in comic book specialty stores.

Vintage Collector's item

Nosferatu is a vampire tale told in the classical manner. It began in the town of Bremen, Germany in 1838 when young Johann Hutter was sent on a special errand by his boss, real estate agent Knock. Herr Knock wanted Johann to travel to Transylvania to meet with a Count Orlac, who wanted to purchase a property in town. For Johann, it seemed the opportunity to earn a rich commission and advance his career, but Johann’s young bride Ellen feared she would never see him again.

Riding hard for several days, Johann finally arrived in Transylvania, where the locals lived in fear of Count Orlac. Still, Johann pressed on until he was face-to-face with Orlac himself, a strangely pale and misshapen man. Johann did not know it then, but he would soon discover that Orlac was a Nosferatu—a vampire. By meeting him, Johann had not only placed his own life in jeopardy, but had imperiled the entire town of Bremen—including Ellen!

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION


SHERLOCK HOLMES DR JEKYLL & MR HYDE

DR JEKYLL AND MR HOLMES COMIC BOOK #1

RARE and OUT OF PRINT COLLECTORS ITEM.
SIR ARTHUR CONAN DOYLE'S CREATION MEETS ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON'S.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Writer Steven Philip Jones came up with an interesting premise: What would happen if the world’s most infamous dual personality came face-to-face (as it were) with the world’s most famous detective? Richard Enfield’s chance observance of a bit of cruelty on the part of Mr. Hyde starts off the adventure. Hyde, unfeelingly, had run down a small child, and under the threat of mob action was forced to make reparations. Enfield noticed that the payment to the girl was made partly in gold, and partly in the form of a check from Dr. Henry Jekyll. Thinking it most strange that such a respected man as Dr. Jekyll would hand over this large sum to a brute like Hyde, Enfield asked Sherlock Holmes to look into the matter. What follows is a fine tale of detection which deftly weaves together the tale of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde with an old-fashioned Sherlock Holmes mystery.
