Batman & Dracula trilogy
0The Batman & Dracula trilogy consists of three American graphic novels—Batman & Dracula: Red Rain (1991), Bloodstorm (1994), and Crimson Mist (1998)—written by Doug Moench and penciled by Kelley Jones. The books were published by DC Comics as a part of its Elseworlds line of comics. Moench created the concept for the first installment and convinced Jones, of whom he was a fan, to join the project. Red Rain's eventual popularity resulted in DC commissioning sequels.
Set outside the DC Universe and Bram Stoker's literary canons, the trilogy begins with a parallel universe counterpart of Batman discovering Count Dracula and his minions feeding off the homeless of Gotham City. This Batman becomes a vampire to gain the necessary strength to defeat Dracula, in which his disguise as a strange creature of the night has become a horrific reality after saving the city. Despite trying to use his powers for the benefits of his vigilante and vampire-hunting activities, Batman finds himself unable to control his bloodlust and eventually kills the Joker before forcing Alfred Pennyworth and Commissioner Gordon to stake him. The stake is later removed by Alfred during a crime wave and Batman slaughters almost all of his old foes and other criminals, after which survivors Two-Face and Killer Croc attempt to get rid of him once and for all.
The Batman & Dracula books were among the earliest and most popular titles of the Elseworlds line, with each listed on the Diamond Comic Distributors bestsellers list. Journalists have praised the books for their story and artwork. Since the trilogy's conclusion, several other DC print releases have featured stories set within Batman & Dracula's world, and the vampire Batman has appeared in some non-comic book media.
