Synopsis

Few horror stories have been adapted as often as Bram Stoker's "Dracula". Guido Crepax also took on the most powerful of all vampire novels. With his typical artistry, with unorthodox page compositions, dynamic line guidance and unmistakable sense of dramaturgy, Crepax translates "Dracula" as a sensual creepy graphic novel. Filmical compositions, subtle black and white stroke and explicit, not to say extreme themes: the Italian comic artist Guido Crepax (1933-2003) is today internationally one of the canonized classics of comics and is not only appreciated in the expert world as one of the most important precursors of the graphic novel. His main works published in the 1960s and 1970s revolutionized the visual language of the medium and inspired countless comic artists worldwide. Crepax fascinates and polarises. This applies to both his numerous adaptations of literary classics and his erotic works. Splitter edits a selection of his comics in high-quality equipment, new translation and with exclusive covers for the German-speaking market. This book is "Splitternackt" - an erotic comic.
