1st appearance of Dracula in comics, with a Neal Adams Cover. A classic that introduces us to an icon. The Tomb of Dracula opener doesn't disappoint! It would spur many a character that was classic to the genre! Bought early on when getting back into collecting and also accurately graded, it showed me what a 6.5 grade represented. A comfortable grade with an eerie cover. That mist covered swamp land could be relative to any country, the classic Dracula brought to you by Gerry Conway. To spurn the genre and bring it to the forefront and remind people of the classics of black and white movies, now in color and full of "life" to show the blood that would fall, if Dracula be allowed to live. It's all for your perusal, beware what awakes at midnight to feed. I first learned of this series containing the 1st app of Dracula in comics from TV show Comic Book Men!
Complete with a back cover picture of the Book and Record Dracula that was an easy listening bought from Keith's Comics! Glad to have read the daring escape, that Dracula can smell the blood and track it for miles proving just how formidable he really is!
Grader Notes:
light spine stress lines breaks color;
small bend left bottom of front cover breaks color;
small crease top of front cover breaks color;
small tear left center of back cover;
small, very light crease left bottom of back cover.

Origin of Blade the Vampire Slayer. 3rd appearance of the Vampire Slayer~ Blade, as well, and the time of birth that it took to usher in someone who could withstand the Dracula. Time was on his side at one time, when fate intervened to take a hard look for an equalizer! Dracula had too many crimes on his hands, and now the Blade will get together cohorts of wooden stake driving expertise! "That Drac', he no good!" Blade is wielding and taking the reasons of his birth to heart, and who else's origin could take on the mean streets in Transylvania or elsewhere!?! The Blade is half a vampire, and with the blood coursing he is able to stick it in the heart to vanquish and with his own moral compass in tow! Now is the time to strike at the mortal coil, if the Dracula is expected to have one. Marv Wolfman and the gang have come up with the resources to give a free for all, in the Thrill of the Hunt! One is expected to survive but the "stakes" are high!
Complete with a back cover picture of some plastic vampire's chompers that were given away at the Reinfeld Movie Prescreen. It's nice to have odds and ends as back cover pictures! Heads or tails the bite on these is lovely to make that sinking feeling with Dracula and Blade!
Grader Notes:
moderate creasing to cover.
moderate spine stress lines to cover.
moderate wear to cover.
