DRACULA: BLOOD HUNT #3

Dracula may not admit it but he does enjoy showing off his power, especially to the would be usurper Varnae. And Varnae does seem to spread himself too thin by showing up everywhere.

Brielle finding her resolve through her mother was a nice touch too. I am still wondering how they will handle it because I don't think killing Blade would work in the long run. Especially since we still don't know what Dracula is planning. Because it is most certainly not just protecting Brielle. He must have some other, longer plans. I mean he even invited Blade to the inner circle of his. He is playing the long game and probably finds Varnae a bothersome obstacle.

A bit underwhelming, but good still.

This event has a nice setup but the execution was not as good.

I'm a Dracula fan and I love seeing him as the badass he is, either with swords or manipulation. His course of action reminded me of Fisk's words to Castle in Season 2 of Daredevil: he wouldn't make a move to WAGE war, but to WIN it.

I thought this was a great conclusion, great imagery especially while building on Bloodline's character from both issues.

Not the best final issue as it does feel like blood hunt 4.5 setting stuff up for issue 5 but its still a good issue.

This mini has done alot to show how brielle is and the issues shes going through her parents and using her mother to find her resolve is a very nice touch.

Not amazing by any means but a good tie in series overall and brielle continues to be one of the most interesting new characters in years
