From the mind of Kurt Busiek, the all-new ongoing horror series continues! When a powerful, predatory corporation acquires the valuable asset that is Dracula, they are not prepared for what they have awakened. Despite being trapped by the corporation, Dracula will let no one stop him from rebuilding his kingdom. Even if it takes a hundred more years. And many more bodies. It's bloodsuckers vs. bloodsucker, as Busiek brings an incredibly modern spin to the Dracula mythos.
There's potential in "Dracula: The Company of Monsters," especially if the end of the issue indicates that Vlad will be used to help run the company, so it can crush its competitors. Shifting his skills from the field of battle and the monarchy to the board room could be very entertaining. Where a character like Evan fits in isn't clear, though. If anything, he seems redundant and a distraction right now. He brings the reader into the story, but loses his function after that's accomplished. All in all, this is a solid book with plenty of potential. Hopefully, that potential will be realized. Read Full Review
