Bela Lugosi Returns As Dracula In New Graphic Novel Adaptation Of Stoker's Novel...
Bram Stoker. Bela Lugosi. Two names forever bound by Dracula. And for the first time ever, Bram Stoker’s gothic masterpiece is being united with the definitive screen Dracula, Bela Lugosi, in Legendary Comics’ all new graphic novel!
In the late 19th Century, Dracula, an ancient Transylvanian vampire, moves to England to find fresh blood and spread his evil contagion. There, he encounters two women, Lucy and Mina, who become the targets of his dark obsession.
Aided by a group of brave men, Professor Van Helsing arrives on the scene to take on the Vampire Prince in the ultimate battle between the forces of light and dark!Doesn't this look fantastic? A graphic novel adaptation of Bram Stoker's game-changing novel, featuring, for the first time, the licensed image of Bela Lugosi as the titular vampire count.
This retelling of Dracula has been written by Robert Napton, with fantasy artist El Garing supplying the striking illustrations.
The book is available for pre-order now, and due to be released next week.
The Nazi Zombies Are Back This Halloween...
In a direct sequel to last Halloween's shocking Commandoes vs Zombies story in the brilliantly British war comic, Commando, the zombies are back for another bite this month.
Look out for issue 5379, Commando: The Home Of Heroes - Commandos vs Zombies 2, in which:
"Sergeant Leo Manktelow is a haunted man - haunted by the death of his best friend, Lionel Stone, and the things he saw on his last mission in Norway. The guilt he felt at leaving his closest friend behind gnawed away at him and wouldn't die. But now Leo is going back to Norway and something he left in the past hasn't stayed dead."
But that's not all, as Commando issue 5381, offers us Operation Silver Bullets, with a definite hint of some werewolf action.
All of these issues are now on sale and, as usual, you can read more at downthetubes.net, the home of British comic book news.
