The Brothers Dracul #1 Gets a Second Printing

Posted on by

AfterShock Comics has announced that The Brothers Dracul #1 from Cullen Bunn and Mirko Colak has sold out and gone to a second printing.

The legend of Vlad the Impaler is the stuff of nightmares. The inspiration for the most iconic of monsters—Dracula—Vlad tortured and murdered thousands of victims. But what turned him into such a depraved killer? The truth lies in his teenage years, when Vlad and his brother Radu were held hostage by the Ottoman Empire. During this time, the brothers learned many things—archery, riding, the art of combat, matters of court…and how to stalk and slay vampires.

The Brothers Dracul is written by Bunn with art by Colak, color by Maria Santaolalla, lettering by Simon Bowland and two covers, one by Colak and Santaolalla and the other by Szymon Kudranski.
