—XarusFor centuries -- centuries -- we've been told we are damned! That we must live our lives in the dark, the world's dirty secret. That we are the corrupt shadows of humanity, undeserving of our own place in the light. And you -- like my father over there -- have accepted that. I say, by our own might, by the force of our will, we are redeemed! Together, united, we will reintroduce vampirekind to the world. And the world will tremble.
Solicit Synopsis
He is the legendary Lord of the Vampires. Dracula. Who would dare attempt to overthrow him? Only Dracula's son, Xarus, a ruthless and clever upstart with the bold ambition to unite all the world's vampire sects under one flag. But Xarus's older brother, Janus, isn't sure he likes the idea of a new regime and seeks allies to oppose Xarus. The ultimate battle for control of Earth's creatures of the night unfolds, with the future of the vampire race - and possibly the Marvel Universe - at stake. Plus: In a classic tale of sorcery and slaughter, witness the birth of Janus, conceived by magic! And when Janus is killed and revived as an adult, the war between father and son for control of all vampires begins!
