I'll be upfront - this wasn't my cup of tea. For me, it was a little more "horror" Dracula than I'd anticipated and, also, surprisingly less about Dracula than I would have liked.I didn't know anything about this comic before starting it - someone gave it to me, because it was Dracula related, so I ...

This covers Doctor Strange from his inception to much more recent adventures with a variety of art styles and enemies. Interesting collection, Lots of potential that hte film really did do well with. It falls into (in my opinion) Doomsday; Spellbound, Gothic, Ghost Stories, Genre: Horror; Super...

This is the first issue of a Marvel series that brings Dracula to the 1970s. It is very Hammer House of Horror, and somewhat predictable if you have read comics from the 50s or 70s - those horror comics. It's not bad and somewhat enjoyable. I love the credits square at the start of the comic. ...

The second volume of Batman: Black & White is much like the first. Editor Mark Chiarello gathers together some of the most acclaimed writers and artists who then produce short stories about The Dark Knight. While I didn’t find the overall experience as strong as the first collection, there were st...

Some good Iron Man stories here but few real classics. The highlight of the book is all the great Gene Colan artwork. Jasper Sitwell, dedicated agent of SHIELD, makes his debut in this volume, but most of the characters are cardboard and throwaway.

It's an anthology, so of course it's a mixed bag, both from an art and story perspective. There are some really outstanding stories here. Paul Dini's "Case Study", the first story in the collection, is a nice and perceptive look at Joker's psychology, painting him as someone completely sane, possibl...

Can I blame dial-up for this? Does that make me sound like a time traveler? I requested The Curse of Dracula from NetGalley because HELLO, I LOVE DRACULA, as in the old-timey book. Stoker's classic spooked me deliciously and unexpectedly, so I saw that Dark Horse Comics was offering a collection of ...

I liked it, but I did not love it. Usually, I tend to breeze through anthologies like this, but this one seemed to take forever. It just did not hold my attention overall. I think an issue is that many of the comics in this collection have not aged well. You have to give credit where it is due: Roy ...
