Exclusive: Dracula: Book IV – The Undead from Matt Wagner and Kelley Jones Launches this Thursday (Corrected)

Bram Stoker’s classic 1897 novel of gothic horror created the most famous literary character of all time: the terrifying vampire lord, Dracula. Now acclaimed comic-book creators Matt Wagner and Kelley Jones are reuniting for the fourth and final chapter in their epic series of original graphic novels about the shadowy history of the world’s most famous literary character with Dracula: Book IV – The Undead. The project launches this Thursday, October 1, on Kickstarter at 9AM PT/Noon ET.

Bram Stoker’s classic 1897 book is one of the most revered icons of the horror genre, and throughout the first three volumes of their smash hit series, Wagner and Jones have stayed true to Stoker’s original canon while also providing an all-new and terrifying look at Dracula’s history and his nefarious actions that take place just off-stage in the novel’s chain of events. But, curiously…the novel’s climax has always left many fans with an unsettled feeling—as if perhaps the infamous vampire lord wasn’t actually destroyed by his enemies…

The first three volumes of Wagner and Jones’s Dracula saga were smash hits—Book 1 broke the Top 20 in Kickstarter’s all-time most successful graphic novel campaigns—and this ultimate chapter promises to be even bigger, with 122 pages of spine-chilling story and art. Wagner and Jones are once again joined for this macabre foray into the shadows of Dracula’s sinister schemes by the stellar talents of José Villarrubia on colors and lettering by Rob Leigh. The Kickstarter campaign will be the only source for these beautiful, European-album sized hardcover editions of this book as well as many exceptional rewards tiers.

See what David Dastmalchian, Eric Powell, and Keith Rosson have to say about the project and sign up so you don’t miss out when it launches Thursday!

  • Promotional graphic featuring a quote by David Dastmalchian about Dracula's history, illustrated with dark, horror-themed artwork, including figures reminiscent of vampires and wolves.
  • Graphic illustration featuring a dark, eerie forest with a skeletal figure lying on the ground. Overlaid text quotes Eric Powell praising the Dracula graphic novel series by Matt Wagner and Kelley Jones, emphasizing its stunning visuals and appeal to horror fans.
  • A graphic illustration featuring a dark figure with glowing red eyes and sharp teeth, alongside a quote praising the storytelling of Wagner and Jones's Dracula as both an homage and a new path in horror.

Dracula: Book IV – The Undead will be funded via Kickstarter. Dracula—Book I: The Impaler and Dracula—Book II: The Brides are available now from Dark Horse Comics as paperbacks. The third volume, Dracula—Book III: The Count, will be published by Dark Horse on October 20, 2026.

Exclusive: Behold, the Slipcase Edition of A Scoundrel in the New World!

Oni Press and Magnetic Press are launching a Kickstarter campaign for A Scoundrel in the New World by legendary Blacksad artist Juanjo Guarnido and world-renowned writer Alain Ayroles. This sprawling and immersive journey through the heart of the 17th-century Spanish Empire and newly discovered America follows the charming yet shady life of a lovable rogue and his search for the legend of the treasure of El Dorado. Fans can get their copy of A Scoundrel in the New World on Kickstarter. Sign up so you don’t miss out when it launches!

Inspired by Francisco de Quevedo classic 1626 satirical novel Historia de la vida del Buscón, llamado don Pablos (The Life of the Swindler named Don Pablos), A Scoundrel in the New World follows Don Pablos of Segovia, a charming conman and inveterate liar who leaves behind the treacherous streets of Spain in search of fortune in the New World. After a life of misadventure, Don Pablos finds himself in prison, recounting his experiences to greedy inquisitors as the ultimate unreliable narrator. From the opulent, gilded halls of the colonial elite to the untamed jungles of the young Americas, Pablos weaves a web of complex schemes to climb the social ladder. However, as the lines between his tall tales and reality begin to blur, Pablos discovers that in the colonies, the most dangerous predator isn’t the wilderness: it’s human ambition.

In addition to the deluxe hardcover edition of A Scoundrel in the New World, Magnetic Press is also producing a Limited Collectors Slipcase edition, with a textured spine and Smyth-sewn binding, a bound-in satin ribbon bookmark, gold foil gilding on the page edges, and a numbered bookplate.
