TOTLB 399 Red Rain

We promised that we were going to keep going back to our roots, and we’re keeping to that promise!! The comic book that we’re going to be talking about this week is a VS title for the ages!! We’re talking about a Batman Elseworlds story where Batman clashes with the baddest vampire around, Dracula. We’re talking about Batman & Dracula: Red Rain!

“Batman investigates a series of murders of homeless people of Gotham City whose throats have been slashed. He discovers that a family of vampires led by Count Dracula are the culprits behind the murders. A rogue vampire, Tanya, chooses to help Batman.”

Red Rain is the first book in a trilogy run of Batman vampire stories. Red Rain was written by Doug Moench, penciled by Kelley Jones, and inked by Malcom Jones III. According to Diamond Comics, Red Rain was the fourth most ordered graphic novel of 1991, so you know that this had a lot of hype surrounding it’s release! Even if you don’t read the rest of the trilogy, Red Rain is worth the read, especially for the work done by Jones!
