Editorial Review: Product Description: Graphic novel fans won't be able to resist as Dracula comes to make Gotham City his dark dominion, first preying on the homeless and then amassing an army to take on the good citizens of Gotham. Batman must forge an alliance with the undead to defeat this unholy foe in a duel that stretches beyond the boundaries of death. Amazon.com Review: Batman and the world's most famous vampire--seems like a perfect combination. Except for the fact that Dracula wants to turn Gotham City into his personal kingdom of the undead. Batman is left with no choice but to side with a renegade band of vampires and face Dracula face to face. Kelley Jones brings his creepy, exaggerated Wrightsonesque artwork to this clever story. A big favorite with the fans, the first edition of this graphic novel was out of print within a month. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Slow but fantastic ReadGreat story and a wonderful addition to the DC Elseworlds titles. Can't give away too much due to the fact it's a great story, READ THIS BOOK! Rating:  - Red Rain DeliversThe anticipation of "Red Rain" by us Batman fans was filled with excitement. The concept was intriguing, Dracula vs Batman and since graphic novels had arrived as a sophisticated medium since the mid-late 80s, I expected a great deal. I was somewhat disappointed, but over the years I have came to appreciate the story more. Moench, Jones, Jones III and Dorscheid collaboration is stunning.

I dimwittedly expected this comic to hold a great story with stunning artwork and I was completely let down. The story is about as cliché as any vampire story but now with the characters of batman thrown in. Having read many Batman comic books with plot, character development, mystery and enemy fight sequences I was very disappointed with the lack of anything resembling batman in this ... Read More Rating: - Graphic SF ReaderSomeone was going to do it sometime, Batman versus Dracula. Luckily, it was someone that did it reasonably well. Batman had fought vampires before, even one that was sneaky and kept his heart in a clock to prevent the usual stakes or crossbow bolt tricks working, but this one is a whole different story and feel to that sort of 70s thing. Rating:  - Dark Batman tale thrills, but Dracula deserves better"Batman & Dracula: Red Rain" offers a unique take on the Caped Crusader. More Dark Knight than Adam West camp, this tale plops Bruce Wayne into an apocalyptic Gotham (even more so than usual), as the very sky weeps tears of blood. Wayne's dreams are tortured by haunting images of beautiful-yet-doomed women, but even more disturbing are the mysterious scars on his back when he awakens. Soon, as the title subtly hints, Batman is matching fists (and to a lesser extent, wits) with good ... Read More |
