Black and White Wednesday: "The Vampire Wants Blood!" by Moench and Mayerik
Long before
Def Leppard warned us that love bites, Doug Moench and Val Mayerik told a tale that drove that sentiment home in a most literal way. From
Vampire Tales #5 (April 1974) here's..."The Vampire Wants Blood!"

As for the rest of ya, the purpose of this blog is to (re)introduce you to the great comics of the 1970s. If you like what you see, do what I do--go to a comics shop, bookstore, e-Bay or whatever and BUY YOUR OWN!
Loved Vampire Tales & Val's great moody, creepy pencils. Just wish like so many other artists. Val had drawn much, much more for Marvel, especially on Frankenstein.
