Frank Frazetta’s Dracula Meets the Wolfman
Image Comics
Niles & Francavilla

The latest installment from the Frazetta line has us visit some familiar characters: Dracula and the Wolfman. True to much of the Frazetta line, the story takes a backseat here as the reader is supposed to kick back and enjoy the visuals. Generally, for a one shot, this issue delivers a good fight but not a ton of story to remember.

Frank Frazetta’s Swamp Demon

Ortega, Medors, Fotos & Hanley

I am a sucker for one shots and for sword and sorcery comics. Add in that I enjoyed the Death Dealer very much and I was a shoe-in to like this issue. Sure, there isn’t going to be a ton to get vested in because it’s a one and done comic, but I liked it anyway. To be fair, the story is a little light, but the art is why you buy a comic like this in the first place and the art rocks.

Mice Templar #5
Image Comics
Glass & Oeming

This comic pretty much only comes out every other month. Each time it shows up on the schedule I think to myself that I shouldn’t pick it up. I remembered liking the previous issues, but too much time passed and I’m just not enthusiastic about the newest issue. Each time, I grapple with these thoughts, and then I purchase the comic and love it. This issue I may feel the strongest yet about my level of enjoyment.

Mice Templar #4
Image Comics
Glass & Oeming

I count myself a fan of this series. Not because I love mice and rats, but because the universe created here has imagination and is rooted in fantasy, just as Star Wars or Lord of the Rings is. I found this particular issue to be good but not quite great. I like the overall direction this story takes but I do have a couple of nagging things I wasn’t crazy about with this issue.

Frank Frazetta’s Dark Kingdom
Image Comics
Kidwell, Vigil, Fotos & Hanley

The Frazetta line delivers an excellent one shot about a man with revenge in his heart and some rage on his side. This comic is a sword and sorcery comic in the tradition of Conan, Dungeons and Dragons and Lord of the Rings. It has strange creatures, peasants, gigantic monsters and a badass hero. While the highlight of the Death Dealer series was the artwork, this series has a strong mix of a story and the art to match it. For a one shot to pull this off is impressive. Especially with brand new characters.
