Dracula: The Company of Monsters #1 Boom! Blast Edition

In 2011, Boom! Studios kicked off a bold reimagining of the vampire mythos with this series from writers Daryl Gregory and Kurt Busiek, featuring art by Scott Godlewski. The story repositions Dracula as a corporate asset, unearthing the Count in modern-day New York to serve as a weapon for a ruthless business dynasty. This single-issue debut, presented as a special "Boom! Blast Edition," sets the stage for a tense, genre-blending thriller where ancient horror meets boardroom ambition. It matters as a clever, high-concept take that reframes a classic monster through the lens of contemporary power and greed.
