Item Description
Kelley Jones is one of BATMAN's most celebrated artists. When you see his darkly distinctive work, you instantly know it’s him. Few artists get to achieve that kind of recognition.That stylish element of danger and dread in Jones' work is on full display here in the 100-page, 1992 graphic novel, BATMAN AND DRACULA: RED RAIN, an 'Elseworlds' tale that was the first of a three part exploration of the dance of death between BATMAN and the Prince of Darkness!
BATMAN writer Doug Moench delivers a story full of terror and despair - fitting tones for Kelley Jones' artwork. In it, BATMAN Investigates a series of murders of Gotham's homeless, the victims' throats having been slashed. He discovers that the murders are being committed by a family of vampires led by DRACULA himself, still "alive" and well.
With the aid of a rogue vampire named Tanya -- who was once a member of DRACULA's brood -- BATMAN, himself bitten by a vampire, acquires the strength necessary to stand against DRACULA's minions. Determined to destroy them, he lures them into the Batcave, and then detonates multiple explosive charges, destroying Wayne Manor and exposing the cave to sunlight, destroying all the vampires within it.
Using his new bat-like wings, BATMAN flies to confront DRACULA, eventually impaling the vampire lord , but at the cost of the last of his humanity as DRACULA drains the last of his blood.
However, after his will has been read by Alfred, BATMAN assures his old friend that he has nothing to fear; Bruce Wayne may be gone, but the BATMAN, thanks to his vampiric powers, will now go on forever!
