Tomb of Dracula #2

Dracula looms over a moonlit London street in this striking 1972 issue, his crimson cape spread wide like bat wings as a fallen victim lies on the cobblestones below and a horrified bystander cowers in the shadows nearby. John Severin's cover captures the Lord of Vampires at his most menacing, with the tagline "Who Stole My Coffin?" hinting at a genuinely unsettling mystery at the heart of the story. Gerry Conway and Gene Colan were clearly building something special with this series, and issue #2 shows the title hitting its atmospheric stride early on.
