I have not had this much fun reading a book in quite a while. Posehn & Duggan absolutely crushed this one out of the park! This book is extremely well crafted from top to bottom!! Geart story, Clean & beautiful art and genuinely witty dialogue. I cannot overstate how great of a read this is. At no point is there a lull or decrease in the quality of presentation. The sections which focus on Dracula are just as enjoyable as those with Deadpool & Shiklah. As a bonus, we get to see tons of Deadpools sidekicks! Ben Franklin, Bob, Thunderbolts, etc etc. Throw in A.I.M., Hydra and M.O.D.A.K. and this book is a non-stop Deadpool-palooza! This one had me laughing out loud several times! Pay special attention for a delightfully jovial Inferno reference!! Basically, I would encourage anyone to buy this book flat out.....with ZERO hesitation!

Both Dracula and Hyde represent monsters constructed as representatives of these anxieties in a direct and actionable form so that the audience could address their concerns. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMETS The Author would like to thank: his major advisor and committee members for their patience, help, and guidance; the various other faculty members who have contributed advice and assistance in the research and formatting of this paper.

  • The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, and Dracula
    Linköping University Department of Culture and Communication English The Changing Role of Science in Frankenstein, The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, and Dracula Lisa Jacobsson D-Course: Literary Specialisation Autumn Term 2010 Supervisor: Margaret Omberg Table of Contents Introduction 3 Chapter 1: Scientific Progress and the Fear of Uncontrolled Creativity 6 Chapter 2: Science and the Fear of Unpredictable Degeneration 14 Chapter 3: Science and the Reinstatement of Human and Religious Values 23 Conclusion 31 Works Cited 34 2 Introduction During the 19th Century, science underwent astonishing advancements in a wide range of fields: remarkable progress was seen in electricity, medicine, biology, and social sciences to name only a few. Carol A. Senf points to how the 19th Century “witnessed unprecedented scientific discoveries and technological developments that have helped to determine the shape and nature of our own age” (5). These advancements had not only a profound impact on everyday life, they also fuelled the imagination of artists. Mary Shelley, Robert Louis Stevenson and Bram Stoker are all children of the 19th Century, inspired by its dynamic and thought-provoking qualities. Living and working in an era where, to Christa Knellwolf and Jane Goodall, “the magic and mystique of science was crossing paths” and where “it was impossible to determine which of a range of mind- boggling prospects might become an actuality”, it is not surprising that scientific development was to become a abundant source of inspiration (8). From this source, both hopeful and horrifying questions could be posed, questions concerning the direction of scientific progress. Was it an entirely positive force aiding people in their lives or were there darker elements and unseen dangers? These questions are at the core of three classic horror stories of the 19th Century: Shelley’s Frankenstein, or the Modern Prometheus (1818), Stevenson’s The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde (1886) and Stoker’s Dracula (1897).

  • Face It Like a Man”: Exploring Male Anxiety in Dracula and the Sherlock Holmes Canon
    “To face it like a man”: Exploring Male Anxiety in Dracula and the Sherlock Holmes Canon Miriam Bjørklund A thesis in English Literature Submitted to the Faculty of Humanities Department of Literature, Area Studies, and European Languages University of Oslo Spring 2014 ii “To face it like a man”: Exploring Male Anxiety in Dracula and the Sherlock Holmes Canon Miriam Bjørklund A thesis in English Literature Submitted to the Faculty of Humanities Department of Literature, Area Studies, and European Languages University of Oslo Spring 2014 iii © Miriam Bjørklund 2014 “To face it like a man”: Exploring male anxiety in Dracula and the Sherlock Holmes canon http://www.duo.uio.no Print: Reprosentralen, Universitetet i Oslo iv Abstract This thesis posits that the genre of the male quest romance, highly popular during the British fin de siècle, was a literary response to increased male anxiety during that period. Reading works belonging to this genre, this thesis sees writers treating approaches to masculinity not as something simple and monolithic, but as diverse and fraught with uncertainty of definition. This thesis demonstrates that the ways in which men in these novels deal with threats to their masculine identity, clearly show that masculinity is experienced as a concept no less complicated than femininity. The specific threats treated here are the role of women, men's sexuality, and mental illness. In the interest of equality, and in an academic setting where “gender studies” are frequently synonymous with “women's studies”, it is hoped that an academic approach to the male quest romance genre will lead to new understandings of the complexity of masculinity as a basis for identity.

    What You Need to Know Tomb of Dracula is a groundbreaking comic, marking Marvel’s first vampire character with his own series, as well as one of the company’s earliest forays into continuous storytelling. Dark, moody, and often considered one of the era’s best, Tomb of Dracula set the tone for Marvel’s future approach to horror. Tomb of Dracula #10 features the first appearance of Blade the Vampire Slayer - one of Marvel’s earliest Black comic book heroes - whose past (and ruthlessness) sets him apart from the book's other vampire hunters.

Marvel had already tested the waters with a "quasi-vampire" character, Morbius, the Living Vampire, but the company was now prepared to launch a regular vampire title as part of its new line of horror books. After some discussion, it was decided to use the Dracula character, one of the most famous vampire to the general public. The Tomb of Dracula is an American horror comic book series published by Marvel Comics from April 1972 to August 1979. The 70-issue series featured a group of vampire hunters who fought Count Dracula and other supernatural menaces.

  • DRACULA to Hit FRANKENSTEIN MONSTER FRANKENSTEIN MONSTER to Hit DRACULA Frankenstein Monster – Parry 9 + 10 = 19 to Hit
    Dracula versus the Frankenstein Monster: The King of Vampires has clashed with the Frankenstein Monster on more than one occasion, in more than one medium, movies, comics, etc. At other times, the Vampire King has attempted to control the monster for his purposes – anything from using him as a simple henchman, to exploiting his secret of rejuvenated life. The Monster is traditionally more powerful, although is a lumbering brute. In most cinematic treatments, the Monster is also a dull- witted creature. Dracula, on the other hand, is an educated member of royalty, battle-skilled and tested over centuries of unlife. As a vampire, he is also immune to most forms of damage, and can transform to other forms, such as bats, rats, or wolves (or sometimes giant human-hybrids of any of the above), or even amorphous, mist. Verdict: Dracula’s intelligence and battle-skills usually put him in control of any situation involving the Frankenstein Monster – except, of course, if the Monster finally loses its temper. Dracula’s vampiric durability gives him a potential edge, but this is very quickly evaporated should the Monster utilize some sort of anti- vampire weapon – even something as simple as a wooden stick. The Monster also regenerates damage – something Dracula can’t do unless he drinks living blood.

  • The Power of Female Sympathy in Bram Stoker's Dracula
    Mesmeric rapport : The power of female sympathy in Bram Stoker's Dracula Jordan Kistler Abstract: Scenes of mesmerism and hypnotism in Gothic novels are commonly read as symbolic of sexual assault that reinforce traditional hierarchies of gendered power. In contrast, Bram Stoker rejects the trope of the helpless woman controlled by the all-powerful mesmerist in his depiction of Mina Harker’s psychic connection to Dracula. Rather, he presents this connection as a means by which Mina can regain power after a traumatic assault, and does so by employing nineteenth-century feminist rhetoric which presented telepathy as a powerful extension of women’s natural faculty for sympathy. The word ‘sympathy’ appears an unusual number of times in Dracula, compared to other Gothic or invasion fiction of the period. In his use of this word, Stoker engages with a number of nineteenth-century discourses, including moral philosophy, feminism, and mesmerism. Each of these branches of thought viewed sympathy as an inherently female virtue. In the novel, feminine sympathy is presented as the means by which the vampire can be fought and destroyed without compromising the humanity of those that fight. Thus, a consideration of the depiction of sympathy in Dracula suggests that Stoker was far more receptive to New Women and the feminist movement of the 1890s than is often allowed. A peer reviewed, accepted author manuscript of the following article: Kistler, J. (2018). Mesmeric rapport: The power of female sympathy in Bram Stoker's Dracula. Journal of Victorian Culture, 23(3), 366-380. https://doi.org/10.1093/jvcult/vcy034 Scenes of mesmerism and hypnotism in Gothic novels are commonly read as symbols of sexual assault that reinforce traditional hierarchies of gendered power.

  • Dracula in the Comics
    Dracula in the Comics Perry Lake [Perry Lake not only reads comic books, he writes and illustrates them for adult comics such as Demi the Demoness and Sex Squad, sometimes featuring his Cassiopeia the Witch character.] Dracula Lives! Is this a defiant declaration of the immortality of the most evil fiend the world has ever known? Or is it the pitiful admission that humanity’s greatest undead threat will never be defeated? Neither. It is the title of a comic book. In magazine format, Dracula Lives! ran from 1973 to 1975, and was published by Marvel Comics. But it was by no means the only appearance of the King Vampire in graphic format. When Dracula fell into public domain, Bram Stoker’s vampire lord appeared in other novels, short stories, scores of motion pictures, a couple of television series, Halloween costumes, computer games, and even on a brand of breakfast cereal. But while there has been much discussion and analysis of these versions of Dracula, less attention has been given to the amazing number of appearances by Dracula in the field of comic books. Not only have a variety of comic book writers and artists dealt with the character Dracula, but so have different publishers. The most famous of these comic books is Marvel Comics’ The Tomb of Dracula, which ran for seventy issues from 1971 to 1979. Though best known, they are not alone. Oddly enough, even though there is the potential for a wide interpretation of the character, the majority of the comics seem to conform to a particular pattern.
