And so we have reached the end of the run of this excellent graphic series by a group of very talented Spanish artists. One postscript regarding these is that I was unable to include any of the posters that came with the issues. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed these imaginative stories of the strange and outre with a European flair.

DRACULA NO. 11 (NEW ENGLISH LIBRARY)


DRACULA
Vol. 1, No. 11
1972 (No month given)
Publisher: Buro Lan, S.A. de Ediciones/New English Library
Editor: Laurence James
Cover: Esteban Maroto
Pages: 24

This is the next to the last issue of this short but sweet series. It should be mentioned before closing out the run that the editor, Laurence James, was also the translator of the original stories in Spanish to English.

I must also make a correction: I have been listing these issues as being published in 1971, but they actually appeared during 1972 -- the copyright date is 1971.

Artists in this issue include Maroto, José María Beá, Alberto Solsona, and Enric Sió.

DRACULA NO. 10 (NEW ENGLISH LIBRARY)


DRACULA
Vol. 1, No. 10
1971 (No month given)
Publisher: Buro Lan, S.A. de Ediciones/New English Library
Editor: Laurence James
Cover: Jose Bea
Pages: 24

Esteban Maroto offers up another sumptuous episode of Wolff, some excellent Sword and Sorcery fare. And with Jose Bea's fantastic Sir Leo story beginning with the line, "Marcel had gradually destroyed his body and mind with Absinthe", how could we not be in for a horror treat?
