Black and White Wednesday: "That Dracula May Live Again!" by Wolfman and Adams

Pullin' out the big guns today, Groove-ophiles! In Dracula Lives! #2 (April 1973) Marv Wolfman and Neal Adams (with "spiritual advising" by Archie Goodwin) turned the awesome origin of Dracula loose on fandom! I love the line in the contents page that calls "That Dracula May Live Again!", "The tale that Bram Stoker forgot--but Marvel didn't!" Leave it to Mighty Marvel to do what everyone else talked about doing--to show how the "real Dracula" (Vlad the Impaler) became the literary vampire Count Dracula. This is Wolfman and Adams in top form, baby! Are ya ready...?
