Chris-Off: Aboot as dirty as you’d expect.

Decent interview. Going to buy the first issue.

Downside: The link you gave to Chris Sims goes to the International Staff Band’s home page. Unless this is on purpose.

Oh, so that’s why the URL for his site has a dash between the “e” and the “i”. (For the record, the actual site is http://www.the-isb.com)

No one ever seems to remember Kohta Hirano’s Hellsing manga when it comes to vampire/Dracula interpretations 😛 Ah well, this still sounds most appealing.

Just what I need, the most prolific online people I know named Chris are now talking to each other. This is real cats and dogs living together stuff here.

I’m gonna give Sims the buck, since he liked my Halloween costume last year, and I need to support right-minded Batman fans. Also, the comic sounds pretty alright.

BIRD: So, how else is your Dracula distinguished? Is he a Dracula who can walk in sunlight (a la Francis Ford Coppola or Team Edward)?

Or, y’know, like Stoker’s Dracula, from the novel. Who walked in sunlight as much as he wanted, he just couldn’t change his shape while the sun was up.

SIMS: As much as I love Dracula, the guy’s a super-arrogant 500 year-old vampire sorcerer king. He’s hard to relate to

You know, I think I’ve seen that exact reasoning for why The Doctor has companions.

And now I’m thinking crossover possibilities.

I want to get to Thalia a little later, mostly because the comic is named Dracula and not New Girl. Which is good, because less singing
So reference to Mexican pop star or tv sitcom I don’t watch?

And something about where to get said comic would be good.

SOLD!

I certainly wish him the best with this.

And yeah, Anno Dracula is pure awesomeness.

New Girl could refer to that new Zooey Deschanel sitcom, don’t know how much singing it has though.

Wow, it’s like the internet married itself. Truly this is a great day for nerds.

@Unstoppable Gravy Express: More than any show not named Glee. At least once an episode.

The one interpretration of Dracula that REALLY wowed me was the one in the anime HELLSING. Summoning Cromwell, drinking blood en masse, carnage & berating his enemies whenever he gets the chance. He was Stoker ‘s Dracula with a good injection of steroids. Make at least that arrogant & badass.

Anyway Chris , good luck for your comic . Hope it’ll get to Tunisia. & do not forget:

Hurry, hurry, hurry, HURRY HURRY HURRY HUUURRRYYYYYY !!!! HAHHAHAHAAHHAHAHAAAAAA!!!

[…] you’re still craving more information about Drac, you’re in luck!  At MightyGodKing.com, Christopher Bird has interviewed Chris about the upcoming series, how it compares to the classic […]

This sounds like a good concept, I”m open to it.

Add me to the “Anno Dracula rocks” list.

The book also shows you can make a vampire likeable, compassionate, heroic — without making them into a moping, self-pitying, “vegetarian”.

I’ve been Team Genevieve Dieudonne since Newman wrote Warhammer tie-ins as “Jack Yeovil”. Edward who? 😉

Hellsing would’ve been a lot better without coining the term “Draculina”.

Has there been a Doctor Who episode with Dracula in it? If not, there should be.

Butbutbut Tice with a J! Dracula is fictional!

In all seriousness, I’d rather the Doctor met up with Captain Nemo, his precedent.

Banished by/flees from his home civilisation, check.

Chooses a mysterious pseudonym denoting authority, check.

Drives a wonderful ship with a strange name that only he knows the real inner workings of, check.

Travels to numerous exotic locations, check.

Abducts total strangers to accompany him on his adventures, check

Strange, mysterious mood swings, check.

All Nemo needs is the talking robot dog to win Doctor Who Character Trait Bingo.
