This just felt empty and rushed. The art style was okay, but nothing really special or memorable. Can't really say that I would recommend it.

Really good adaptation! I was expecting a mediocre retelling, but this was so good. Phenomenal artwork and an awesome retelling really gave life to this timeless tale :)

 This is a very good adaptation of the original novel. It is very fast paced, faster than the novel, but that is to be expected. It did trim some of the letters and journal entries and also some of the lore. Van Helsing's role seemed a little less than in the novel. The ending seemed a little more abrupt than I remember the novel being. I think this would be a good supplemental resource for teachers. One of the better graphic novel adaptations of a classic novel that I have read recently.
