From the bestselling author illustrator team of the
9/11 Report: A Graphic Adaptation comes the truly
gory tale of the historical Dracula
The Dracula
myth has sparked a legacy of endlessly entertaining creepy
tales. The fictional character, originally penned by Bram
Stoker, was inspired by and named after a real-life
fiend-Prince Vlad Dracula, the fifteenth-century ruler of
Wallachia-a man infamous for massacring and impaling his
enemies. In brilliant four-color illustrations, Vlad the
Impaler tells the ghastly prince's life story from his
seizure as a boy by the Turkish Sultan, to his love life, to
his maniacal attempts to retain power regardless of whose
throat he must slit.
From the bestselling writer and
illustrator team who brought us The 9/11 Report: A
Graphic Adaptation-hailed by Stan Lee as "beautifully
and compellingly written and illustrated. . . . It will
surely set the standard for all future works of contemporary
history, graphic or otherwise"-this graphic novel, based on
a true story, is replete with gory details of torture
tactics. Ideal for readers who made 30 Days of Night
and World War Z bestsellers, the combination of
riveting legend and blood-and-guts drawings will be an
anticipated addition to the graphic novel fan's library.
