When I first saw Dr. Doom talking to Count Dracula on the moon (last issue), I thought for sure this was going to be a corn-fest. I mean really, Count Dracula?!?! Shows my ignorance. Turns out their encounter was the best part of the new book. I guess part of it had to do with my ignorance of these two characters. I honestly know next to nothing about either of them. But the way Doom taunts Dracula and the tension between them was very well written. Conceptually, it is very cool to think about a war between Dracula with his vampires and Doom with the Latvarians.
The rest of the book just highlighted interpersonal elements of the team. All in all this was more of a set-up issue for the upcoming Vampire run.
Should be fun though. These Vampires are going to give MI13 a run for their money!
