"In this beautiful, evocative, and often surreal retelling of Bran Stoker's Dracula, a fearsome enemy arrives from the east, bringing with it horrors the likes of which have never been seen in the British Empire. Standing opposed are Wilhelmina "Mina" Murray and her stalwart companions, united in a cabal that eclipses gender, nationality, and station until the day that they can achieve victory. As Mina struggles to find her place as Whitby School's first and only student, a devilish horror is unleashed upon the academy and its unsuspecting students: Count Dracula. However, when this unspeakable evil lays claim to her beloved Lucy Westenra, Mina stands ready to join forces with her fellow students and fight against it with everything she has."--Back cover.… (mehr)

#DRCL: Midnight Children Vol. 1 by Shin'ichi Sakamoto delivers an engrossing blend of dark fantasy and childhood innocence. A retelling of Bram Stoker's classic Gothic horror Dracula, this manga reminded me a great deal of Douglas Preston & Lincoln Child's Relic. The focus lies with a group of university students, with Mina being the only female in this all-male school.

Sakamoto's detailed artwork and his masterful play with dark tones nearly make up for the odd take on the story for me. Very different, yet quintessentially Dracula. I find giant eyes unacceptable in my life, due to eye trauma. I also have to say, the nekkid lady on the ceiling gives off a creepy, distinctly Japanese vibe. While not my cuppa, Sakamoto's #DRCL: Midnight Children Vol. 1 serves as an engaging beginning to a fascinating retelling of a true classic in the horror genre.

***Many thanks to Netgalley & Viz Media for providing an egalley in exchange for a fair and honest review. (
