Marvel Comics, Marvel: Black, White & Blood and Guts
Marvel: Black, White & Blood and Guts – Volume 01 Issue 01
My Rating “The Trail” Blood banks have always been the standard operating procedure for vampires. Even in the early years, when Blade entered into the suck-head removal services, they existed in dirty warehouses and damp undisclosed basements. Now, with wearable technologies, a new industry has risen to meet the health-conscious. This technology, of course, was
Blackthorne Publications, Vampires
Vampires – Volume 01 Issue 14
My Rating “Vampires Everywhere!” The hounds of hell starved for flesh as their master did for living blood. Under the cover of night, they invaded Santa Carla, hunting for those unaware of the dire circumstances in which enveloped them. Then they struck! Razor-sharp teeth tore through skin and bones, leaving nothing behind but the memories
Archie Comics, Archie Showcase Digest
Archie Showcase Digest – Volume 01 Issue 24
My Rating “Midnight Madness!” Someone is moving into the old Potter house next door to Archie Andrews. But why are they doing it at night? And what’s up with the coffin-sized crate being hoisted into the basement? Wait a minute… Betty can’t be right on this one. A vampire?! What the Fright Night is going
Man-Thing - Vol.01, Marvel Comics
Man-Thing – Volume 01 Issue 01
My Rating “Battle For The Palace Of The Gods!” A battle rages forward within the Nexus of all Realities (a.k.a. Man-Thing’s swamp)! What first began as a scrap between monster and construction workers, has escalated into a fight for their very souls. A legion of demons from the Multiverse began an attack on the F.A.
DC Comics, Scarlett
Scarlett – Volume 01 Issue 04
My Rating “Blood Of Innocence – Chapter Five” Surrounded! The Road Disciples biker gang and a team of Conclave vampire hitmen have been surrounded by an agency of high-tech undead called Society Of The Advancement Of Vampire Ecology. With overwhelming firepower and a fleet of Apache attack helicopters, all must surrender or be irradiated. Woah,
Marvel Comics, Werewolf By Night: Blood Moon Rise
Werewolf By Night: Blood Moon Rise
My Rating “Nail In The Coffin” The voice, it has never been there before. It is there, that is for certain. What else could keep Jack Russell from losing his mind in the transformation from man to beast? The Darkhold? A possibility. His sworn enemy? Not even Dracula had the power to link minds with
Gold Key Comics, Gold Key Select: Boris Karloff Thriller
Gold Key Select: Boris Karloff Thriller – Volume 01 Issue 01
My Rating “Gleam Of Evil” Strange things have been happening ever since Bud Marvel, the star trapeze artist of the big top circus, proposed marriage to lion tamer Kay Spencer. Random animals have been turning up dead, and now the bad luck has affected the performers. There is no rhyme or reason to the incidents,
Marvel Comics, The Monster Of Frankenstein
The Monster Of Frankenstein – Volume 01 Issue 12
My Rating “A Cold And Lasting Tomb!” Reader Note: A significant portion of this story takes place in Monsters Unleashed No.02, 04, and 06. The lifeless body of the monster sank deeper and deeper into the Arctic waters. Within seconds, memories began to fade as the frigid temperature overwhelmed any vitality remaining left inside of
Marvel Comics, Tomb Of Dracula
Tomb Of Dracula – Volume 01 Issue 16
My Rating “Return From The Grave!” Highgate Cemetery – Midnight, the arm shot up from inside the exposed coffin, gripping Dracula with vice-like strength. The skeletal hand was fixed tightly around his undead throat using some unexplainable supernatural phenomena even the prince of evil could not explain. What was this fiend? How dare it lay
