- Hundreds of pages of solid gothic horror for a few bucks500-plus pages of enjoyable Dracula tales from 1970's-era Marvel, though perhaps not the head-and-shoulders improvement over the tales in "Essential Tomb of Dracula Volume 1" that I was expecting. Plusses include the usual sharp Gene Colon/Tom Palmer artwork and the variety of different genres explored (horror, high adventure, even science fiction). The big minus is the inclusion of several "Giant-Size Tomb of Dracula" tales. This companion magazine to the regular "Tomb of Dracula" title was clearly ... Read More

- Who Mourns For Dracula?Without question, this volume contains the very heart of the series, which to my mind, represents Marvel Comics at her best: with strong characters, beautiful artwork and the guts to take chances! Writer Marv Wolfman had been on the series for about a year and was comfortable with putting the characters through their paces-- and in this volume, they were put through a meat grinder!
The main plot deals with the ramifications of the events in the previous volume. As Dracula's plots and schemes ... Read More

- The end of Comicdom's Number 1 Fear MagazineDracula first appeared in the Marvel Universe in the early 1970s when "The Tomb of Dracula" first appeared. Penciler Gene Colan, the perfect artist for the comic book, was there from the beginning, but Tom Palmer, who would ink the vast majority of issues did not arrive until the third issue, and writer Marv Wolfman did not take over the scripting duties until the seventh issue. By that point most of the cast of characters had been established: Frank Drake, the American descendant of Dracula himself, Rachel ... Read More

- One of the high points in comic book historyWolfman and Colon were really at their best when they were working on this series. Marv kept the series moving with tight characterization and nobody could draw Dracula like Gene: the bat fluttering on the breeze, the bat transformations, the face foating in the mist, and the overall imperial air. Unfortunately, they couldn't keep up with the work load and the giant-size issues were handled by others and weren't quite as good.
