First, Angel successfully returned to comics in the form of the sold-out Angel: The Curse. Then, IDW Publishing and New York Times best-selling writer Peter David brought Spike back to the fold as well in the 48-page one-shot, Spike: Old Friends. And now, David is poised to throw the blonde-haired, snarky vampire his biggest challenge yet: getting back the 11 quid he’s long been owed by the Lord of the Undead, Dracula himself.
Noting the differences in their personalities, Peter David had this to say about Spike versus Dracula, “Throughout the series, to Dracula there's great emotional weight in his resentment toward Spike, whereas Spike pretty much just wants his money back.”
The miniseries spans centuries, and sees the rivalry between Spike and Vlad the Impaler take place across many lands, including 1930s Hollywood, 1940s Germany, 1950s Rome, and even modern day. Along the way, some very familiar guest-stars will be showing up as well. Will Spike ever get back the money he’s owed? Will there be a clear-cut winner in this long rivalry?
