Discover the true story of Vlad the Impaler, the ruthless historical figure who inspired Bram Stoker’s Dracula, in a stunning graphic novel by Roy Thomas and Esteban Maroto.
Long before Bram Stoker immortalised Dracula as the world’s most famous vampire, there was Vlad the Impaler, the ruthless ruler of Wallachia whose bloody legacy would inspire one of literature’s most enduring legends.
Written by acclaimed Roy Thomas and illustrated by legendary artist Esteban Maroto, Vlad Dracula explores the youth and early reign of the historical Vlad Tepes, bringing to life the brutal events and dark mythology surrounding the man behind the vampire.
Originally published in the United States in the early 1990s, this classic graphic novel returns in a deluxe collected edition, presented for the first time in its entirety in the original black-and-white artwork by Maroto, with a brand-new cover created especially for this edition.
