While most movie retelling skim this part, Marve's comic doesn't. I REALLY have to give them credit that they seriously devote a full third, if not half of the book, to John's capture by Dracula in his castle. This book is gloriously detailed and follows the original narrative thoroughly. This comic book IS Dracula, the way Bram Stoker might have wanted to tell it had he the ability to create such an art form. It Is NOT a summary of Dracula or a spin off. Marvel's Dracula is not just a silly little comic book. And with vampires being incredibly popular nowadays, I figured what else can they come up with? Well, the answer is this comic book, by Marvel Comics. Who hasn't? I'm sure everyone has seen one of the many Dracula movies made in the last century. I've read Bram Stoker's Dracula many times. It was a social hub, a place of high school memories, and a great escape from the craziness of home. I am very sad to see Borders go, as it was more then a bookstore to me. I bought this book in Borders, during its going-out-of-business clearance sale.
