Not Impressed
As a self-proclaimed Gambit and Storm fan, I was expecting alot out of this one-shot, but ultimately it ended up failing, epicly. The story starts off with our favorite duo heading towards a vampire island in order to retrieve the body of Dracula, however on there journey they stumble across many obstacles which make there journey quite difficult. Luckily they are aided by Dracula's own son Janus.
The concept of the story was actually a good one, and had alot of potential, but it didn't live up to that potential. Storm nor Gambit did anything spectacular in this series...sure Storm may have thrown a bolt of lightning once or twice, but that was it! Other than that, they were either running from the vamps, or going toe-to-toe with them in hand-to-hand combat. The twilight references throughout the book were so cliche, and I found Emma to be a tad bit snarkier than usual, almost like it was forced (which came off all wrong). And don't even get me started on the artwork. Overall this issue isn't as impressive as you'd think and I wouldn't recommend buying it.
