Jeffries in X-Men #4

It's not too bad, but we don't dare go out at night.

Dana - Your knowledge of vampirism is...um...impressive? or maybe alarming? Suffice it to say I am glad you are all the way up in Maine because to have such an intimate knowledge of the undead could either stem from experience dealing with them or dare I say it - actually being connected in some way...

Seriously...I've always just been a huge fan of Marvel's monsters, especially Werewolf By Night, Dracula (the Tomb of), the Monster of Frankenstein.

Werewolf By Night rocked!

[cmdrkoenig67]

Yes, he/it did. I'd like to see Marvel actually do something (non-destructive) with him. They never seem to know what to do with him, so they usually do horrible things to him.

Not an appearance as such (although he may well end up being in it) but Emma's line in this preview for X-Men vs Vampires #2 made me chuckle;

There's a 2nd printing variant solicited as well, no surprise, but the orientation is either a wrap-around or totally sideways!

[rplass]

Ok this is really weird. The 2nd printing came out today and that is the actual art. The cover is sideways, stapled on the left edge and meant to be held in landscape orientation. I can't say I've ever seen a comic cover like this before. I'm sure there must have been others at some time but this is a first for me.

Love,

Rob -
There've been plenty before. They make it onto Linkara's show a lot, and he hates them.
They make him feel like he's reading Playboy.

Yeah, I know they are out there, but it's the first in my collection!

[Le Messor]

Now that you've read your first, cool or annoying?

- No.
"Now that your first is over, how do you think it went?"
- Some guy I knew

Did you ever read John Byrne's run of Fantastic Four? He did an entire issue sideways (the story takes place in the Negative Zone). He may have been the first to ever do it, but I'm not sure of that.

[Le Messor]

Hasn't that issue in general been covered on Comic Book Urban Legends Revealed?
