Dark Shadows #1

Dark Shadows #1 (2011, Dynamite Entertainment) kicks off with a chilling return to the haunted halls of Collinwood, where Barnabas and Julia grapple with the sudden resurgence of his vampire curse. Written by Stuart Manning and illustrated by Aaron Campbell, with colors by Carlos Lopez and letters by Troy Peteri, the issue weaves tension through the Collins family’s lingering pasts, all while Angelique’s shadowy presence lingers just beyond sight. Francesco Francavilla’s haunting cover captures the gothic dread perfectly.
