Anno Dracula Release Details:
Titan Comics is releasing an all-new comic series based on the bestselling ANNO DRACULA novels, written by creator Kim Newman with art by Paul McCaffery (The Third Doctor).

The Anno Dracula novels (review) depict an alternate 19th-century history where the characters of Bram Stoker’s Dracula fail to prevent Count Dracula’s subjugation of Great Britain, creating a world where vampires are living amongst humans and a central part of society. The series also features characters including Jack the Ripper, Professor Moriarty, and Van Helsing.

Kim Newman is a critic, author, and broadcaster. He writes the Anno Dracula series of horror novels, which was first published in 1992. Newman has written four Anno Dracula novels to date, as well as short stories.

Anno Dracula Issue #1 arrives March 22, 2017.

Synopsis:
1895. Prince Dracula has ruled Great Britain for ten years, spreading vampirism through every level of society. On the eve of Dracula’s Jubilee, radical forces gather to oppose the tyrant. Kate Reed, vampire journalist and free-thinker, takes a seat on the revolutionary Council of Seven Days, though she learns that the anarchist group harbors a traitor in its midst. The Grey Men, Dracula’s dreaded secret police, have been ordered to quash all resistance to the rule of the arch-vampire. With intrigue on all sides, the scene is set for an explosive addition to the Anno Dracula series.
