Helt klart det bästa klassiska seriealbumet jag har läst hittills! Så spännande att äntligen få läsa Dracula (även om det är seriealbum) och det får mig uppskatta den här versionen så mycket mer, för jag tror inte att jag skulle ha tålamod att läsa originalet av Bram Stroker.

A really great way to enjoy one of the classics, which so much entertainment is inspired by.

I'm in love with these graphic novel retellings of classic stories. I liked this one alot. It has been taking me forever to read Dracula and with this I finished it in two days. Loved it.

I loved this! I have yet to read the original Dracula text so I cannot offer a comparison, but the graphic novel is beautiful. It was well-paced and easy to follow. I knew that Dracula was written as a collection of various documents, and I think this adaptation emulated that style exceedingly well. Everything about the artwork is gorgeous. My only complaint is that the text bubbles/boxes are not well-edited. There are some places where words seem to be missing and several instances of inconsistent grammar. At first I just assumed that they were intentional English mistakes since I mostly noticed them in Dutchman Van Helsing's speech (and some of them may have been. Again, I have not read the original text), but there were also a few similar mistakes from English native speakers as well.
