The Rundown: Dracula discovers more about the people he’s hunting as he continues to run a dangerous gauntlet.

The military has taken out the air cover for the speeding Nazi train while Dracula fights for his second life against a true believer who has a weapon that is designed to hurt the count. While he takes on his latest enemy, he thinks back to his return to Earth and the confrontation with a familiar face that will lead to a promise made to a young boy.

In the present, the count has taken out his latest threat and continues to move through the train taking out and increasing number of enemies while being hounded by Hazel and Ivy who slowly reveal their connection to count Dracula and why they need him alive to complete their work.

The Story: Porter crafts a darkly fun and entertaining thrill ride through this train and I am here for every gore-filled, fast-paced and insane moment. I love the pacing of this story and this issue moves as fast as the train it is set on. I like the flashback moments a lot and how they shape both the story and the character. This is a fun, engaging and thrilling take on the Dracula story and I look forward to seeing how it ends.

The Art: Cannon delivers awesome visuals throughout the issue. I love the visual style and how the action has a sense of enhanced movement and speed.
