\"\"<\/a>It\u2019s been two months since we last took a look at Tomb of Dracula<\/em><\/a> \u2014 and since issues #51 and #52 both feature significant developments in the ongoing \u201cChurch of Dracula\u201d saga that writer Marv Wolfman, penciller Gene Colan, and inker Tom Palmer were chronicling half a century ago, we\u2019re going to be spending just about as much time today talking about the former as we are the latter, regardless what the big post title up there might lead one to believe.\u00a0 If you\u2019re a regular (or even a semi-regular) reader of this blog, you already know how this goes\u2026 so, let\u2019s get to it.<\/p>\n

As indicated by the Colan-Palmer cover for #51, a major plot thread that\u2019s been running in the background of this series for a while now \u2014 namely, the quest of Blade and Hannibal King to track down their mutual arch-enemy, the vampire called Deacon Frost \u2014 is about to return to the foreground.\u00a0 First, though, our storytellers will have to resolve another situation that feels like it\u2019s been in stasis for three issues running (maybe because, by and large, it has)\u2026\u00a0 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Frank Drake and Harold H. Harold launched their ill-advised infiltration of the home of Satanic cult leader Anton Lupeski back in #48.\u00a0 Searching for Dracula, they were instead themselves found and captured by Lupeski and his acolytes in issue #49.\u00a0 Then, in Tomb of Dracula<\/em> #50, Rachel van Helsing \u2014 who\u2019d been tracking the hapless duo without their knowledge since #48 \u2014 showed up, crossbow in hands, to bail them out of their self-inflicted jam.<\/p>\n

Somehow, while all this was going on, Lupeski also found time to conceive and put into action a plan to use the Silver Surfer as a weapon against Dracula \u2014 whom, though supposedly the cult leader\u2019s lord and master, Lupeski had actually been secretly working against for his own evil ends.\u00a0 ToD<\/em> #50 ended ambiguously, with the Surfer deciding to leave the Lord of Vampires\u2019 fate to, um, a Higher Power; since that conclusion, Drac has evidently decided to go searching for the source of what he rightly identifies as \u201ctreachery<\/strong>\u201d in the opening splash page above.\u00a0 Unfortunately, he seems to have incorrectly pegged his longtime foes Van Helsing and Drake as the cause of his recent travails, rather than the actual culprit, the seemingly loyal Lupeski.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Our three Dracula hunters make it to Harold\u2019s car and then speed away, wondering why their arch-foe let them get away so easily.\u00a0 \u201cMaybe he wasn\u2019t thirsty<\/strong> right now?\u201d Harold asks speculatively, before the scene shifts back to the Lupeski place to show us the actual <\/em>reason:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We\u2019d seen Quincy Harker begin to suffer chest pains back in issue #48, following the departure of Frank and the others.\u00a0 So his condition here isn\u2019t exactly a surprise.<\/p>\n

Rachel quickly diagnoses that her mentor and father-figure has gone into cardiac arrest.\u00a0 An ambulance is called and, once it arrives, Rachel opts to ride with Quincy to the hospital, while Frank and Harold follow in the latter\u2019s car\u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Dracula proceeds to put on a show for his guests, turning into a bat before their eyes, then doing the same trick with mist.\u00a0 You might even say he knocks \u2019em dead (figuratively speaking)\u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Hurrying to her husband\u2019s side, Domini asks him what\u2019s wrong.\u00a0 \u201cTh-there was someone here<\/strong> \u2014 watching me, Domini,\u201d Dracula replies.\u00a0 \u201cSomeone I\u2019d seen years<\/strong> ago \u2014 when I first\u2026 when I \u2013\u201d But then he stops himself, dismissing the incident (at least until next issue), and the couple return to the party.\u00a0 Unknown to them, however, Anton Lupeski has been eavesdropping \u2014 and he\u2019s unsurprisingly delighted to learn that there\u2019s someone out there whom even his supposed \u201cdark lord\u201d fears.<\/p>\n

OK, by this point you may be wondering if this issue\u2019s cover (not to mention your humble blogger) was lying about Blade and Hannibal King playing a central role in the story.\u00a0 After all, we\u2019re already on page 9 of our 17-page yarn.\u00a0 But, fear not\u2026 their time has come at last:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Grabbing a piece of the broken wooden fence to use as a makeshift stake,\u00a0 Hannibal King stabs his pursuer, though not fatally.\u00a0 Then, as Blade staggers, King resumes his flight, which (as his voiceover narration informs us) is not at all random \u2014 rather, he\u2019s heading directly for the same house where Drac and Domini\u2019s party is being held, following up on a clue he\u2019d received earlier that he could find Deacon Frost there.\u00a0 And so, moments later\u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Hmm, is Deacon Frost just another \u201cgate crasher\u201d, like Hannibal King and Blade?\u00a0 Or has he wrangled an actual invitation, somehow?\u00a0 It\u2019s an intriguing question, though not one that the storyline ever gets around to answering, to the best of my knowledge.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Wait, back up a panel\u2026 WTF just happened there with Rachel and Frank?<\/p>\n

Ever since Frank returned to the Dracula-hunters squad with more \u201cconfidence\u201d following an adventure with Brother Voodoo in Brazil over a dozen issues ago, Rachel has had mounting concerns about his performative machismo.\u00a0 Just in the last few hours<\/em>, Frank\u2019s need to flamboyantly demonstrate his manly courage almost got him and Harold (and Rachel) needlessly killed.\u00a0 And now, after he pays a little perfunctory lip service to having lost his temper a few times lately, and maybe not showing his feelings for Rachel as much as he should, she\u2019s ready to let him completely off the hook?\u00a0 To tell him he\u2019s been right \u201cabout everything<\/strong>\u201d all along, and fall into his arms so he can shut her up with a kiss?\u00a0 Eyucch.<\/p>\n

I imagine that when I first read this scene back in September, 1976, I assumed that this weird turn would be followed up on in the future \u2014 that we\u2019d see Frank and Rachel\u2019s relationship dynamic go through further convolutions before being resolved, either by their breaking up or by their establishing a stronger, more emotionally healthy bond.\u00a0 But, no; having recently re-read the series on to the end of its run, I\u2019m here to tell you that this is it; this<\/em> is the resolution of Frank and Rachel\u2019s post-Brazil character arc.<\/p>\n

I have no idea if Marv Wolfman felt he\u2019d written himself into a corner fifty years ago, and had no idea how to get out of it, or if he\u2019d simply gotten bored of the whole business and wanted to move on.\u00a0 But whatever the case, it\u2019s a major disappointment \u2014 and from the standpoint of characterization, probably the nadir of Wolfman\u2019s work on this series.<\/p>\n

And now that I\u2019ve gotten that off my chest, let\u2019s get back to the fight:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Boasting that he has an advantage over Dracula due to the original Blade\u2019s extensive training in handling knives and spears, Vampire Blade plunges his stake into the Count\u2019s body\u2026 but misses his heart, which leads Drac to gloat that his adversary isn\u2019t really superior to \u201cthe true<\/strong> Blade\u201d after all.\u00a0 Meanwhile\u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

As we ring down the curtain on ToD<\/em> #51, we note that its \u201cNext Issue\u201d blurb promises the arrival of a new player \u2014 one who might (or might not) be a \u201cDemon?\u201d\u00a0 And as we move to pick up issue #52, we find its Colan-Palmer cover offers us our first look at this mysterious individual\u2026 although, in the context of the Marvel Universe, he looks more likely to be a superhero (or villain), or a space alien, or even an android, than any kind of evil spirit we\u2019re familiar with from years of reading comics.\u00a0 Just sayin\u2019.<\/p>\n

Turning to the opening splash page, we find our storytellers beginning on a sad, if not surprising, note:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We\u2019re not told just how our little band got Blade\u2019s body from that big house in Boston to this cemetery, but I suppose we can assume that Hannibal King dragged it out of the place on his lonesome, and then\u2026 something something something.\u00a0 Whatever.\u00a0 Anyway, once their dearly departed has been properly deposited in the cold hard ground, King and company make their exit \u2014 unaware of the \u201cflitting black shape\u201d observing from high above their heads\u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

For this reader, it was always fascinating to get these little vignettes drawn from the Lord of Vampires\u2019 long and colorful history \u2014 especially since the demise of the black-and-white Dracula Lives<\/em> magazine, where such episodes had been regularly featured.<\/p>\n

And speaking of Dracula Lives<\/em>\u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Writer\/editor Wolfman neglected to insert a footnote here, so please allow me to inform you that Dracula\u2019s fateful encounter with \u201cthat foolish actor<\/strong>\u201d Louis Belski had been chronicled in the short story \u201cFear Stalker\u201d, which was written by Wolfman, illustrated by Mike Ploog and Ernie Chan, and published in Dracula Lives<\/em> #4 (Jan., 1974).\u00a0 And now you know.<\/p>\n

After using his hypnotic powers to blow past the ticket seller without paying (what a cheapskate), Dracula proceeds into the theater to join his fellow moviegoers\u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Everyone in the theater wisely flees for their lives \u2014 at least, everyone who\u2019s able (it\u2019s not entirely clear whether Dracula actually kills the unfortunate woman in the glasses, or if she manages to escape) \u2014 leaving our villainous protagonist to stand alone.\u00a0 Or perhaps I should say, he believes<\/em> he\u2019s alone\u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

As previously noted, our Golden Boy doesn\u2019t really resemble the denizens of Hell we\u2019re familiar with from other Marvel comics, and his \u201cLet there be light!<\/strong>\u201d shtick gives off even stronger anti-demonic vibes.\u00a0 So one might fault Dracula for seeming somewhat obtuse here.\u00a0 On the other hand, maybe he\u2019s recalling a certain Bible verse<\/a>\u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Even more on the back foot now than he was before his flight, the cornered Dracula desperately calls on one of his most formidable powers \u2014 the ability to call down the storm.\u00a0 But his adversary easily counters this move, summoning sunlight to disperse the dark clouds.<\/p>\n

At this point, our storytellers cut away for a whole two panels\u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\u2026just long enough to foreshadow the next development in their ongoing Hannibal King\/Blade-fronted plotline.\u00a0 (What, you thought Blade was really<\/em> dead?\u00a0 Pshaw.)\u00a0 And then it\u2019s back to the battle, as Dracula and Golden Boy confront one another while atop a moving roller-coaster car.\u00a0 Drac attempts to use hypnosis on his foe, only to have the effect reversed; it\u2019s thus the vampire, rather than the \u201cdemon\u201d, who goes tumbling from the car.\u00a0 Turning into a bat at the last possible moment before going splat on the midway pavement, the Lord of Vampires admits to himself he\u2019s outclassed: \u201cI have no<\/strong> chance against that demon\u201d\u00a0 Yet, even as he takes refuge beneath the canopy of a carousel, he conceives a plan\u2026<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In previous issues, Dracula has reluctantly acknowledged his inability to remove the painting of Christ from \u201chis\u201d church, but has nevertheless more or less managed to ignore its silent presence.\u00a0 Now, however, he realizes that the power it represents is capable of acting against him directly.\u00a0 Will this cause him to adjust his overall scheme in any meaningful fashion?\u00a0 Only time will tell\u2026 but first, the focus of our narrative will return once more to Blade and Hannibal King, and to the object of their shared quest for vengeance, Deacon Frost \u2014 for what ToD<\/em> #52\u2019s\u00a0 \u201cNext Issue\u201d blurb promises us will be the final time, at least as far as the last of that threesome is concerned.\u00a0 So please make your plans to return to this space next month for our deep dig into Tomb of Dracula<\/em> #53\u2026 an excavation that\u2019ll begin with the literal digging-up of Blade\u2019s grave, and we both know you won\u2019t want to miss that<\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
