I had always wished that the DS comics had been more recognized or thought of as being unique in having a vampire as the hero. Though he wasnt a super hero he did use his abilities to defend the Collin's family and too defeat the villan/s and monsters ,often with the help of his allies. I was always disapointed that the comic book artist always had Ms. Hall's Julia character looking like an American Indian Man instead of being more attractive.
I liked the DS comic artwork much better from the Sunday newspaper comic strip; that artist made the characters look great though most of the images were taken from DS photographs.
I think that this will be a great collectible again with the unique distinction of having a Vampire hero. It should sell really well to collectors, especially with all the EXTRA things that will be added to it.
