Unknown Artist pencils, inks attributed to Mike Esposito and John Romita; stat from Tomb of Dracula #61 affixed to art; image size 10" x 15"
"Full Moon Rise -- Werewolf Kill!"There is a bit of mystery surrounding this cover, as the penciler's identity is yet to be identified, what is obvious however, is the quality of this piece. Created for the UK comic Dracula Lives, which featured many of the same stories from the US title Tomb of Dracula, but had cover art created solely for the British market. The cover has a stat from Tomb of Dracula #61 affixed to it, which gives the piece a finished look. The experts at ComicConnect have attributed the inks to Mike Esposito and John Romita, perhaps the name of the penciler who created this 70's horror cover will become known in time, and the owner may be pleasantly surprised to find its value going up. Regardless of who the artist is, this is still a great Bronze Age Dracula cover, and a cool piece of Marvel horror history.
