Preview Chronicles Of Legion Vol.1 From Titan – Vlad Dracula Gets Three Incarnations

Titan Comics brings us the 56 page hardcover graphic novel Chronicles of Legion Volume 1: Rise of the Vampires in early November, written by Fabien Nury, with artwork by Mathieu Lauffray, Mario Alberti, Zhang Xiaoyu, and Tirso. There are many great incarnations of vampire stories in comics, past and current, but when a comic takes on historical elements as part of a long-running narrative, I find that particularly attractive, perhaps because it delves into the real-world overlaps between folklore and people scary enough to inspire those stories.

Titan describes Chronicles of Legion Volume 1 as:

Three lives, three incarnations of Vlad Tepes Dracula. The same blood flows in the veins of all three, the blood of Dracula. They will be forced to take part in a fratricidal feud between Vlad and Radu: a battle that has lasted for centuries and has claimed countless lives.

This is how the vampires rise…

And here's our preview of Volume 1: Rise of the Vampires:
