Issue description
Darkstalkers, the ongoing comic based on Capcom's classic series, continues this month
with the tale of the Gerdenheim Monster: Victor. After years of failed experiments
conducted in the bowels of his towering dark castle, Professor Gerdenheim was finally
successful in discovering the secrets of life, death and reanimation. Fashioning a creature
by integrating and enhancing body parts from countless corpses, Prof. Gerdenheim
created "Victor." He was overjoyed at the sight of his newly born creation, but many
villagers accused the scientist of being mad to allow such an 'abomination' to walk the
Earth. In this story featuring guest artist Joe (Sentinel, Thundercats) Vriens and Alvin
(Street Fighter, Agent X) Lee, Victor is mistakenly blamed for a murder and is hunted
down by the very people he tries to protect. Plus, a backup story featuring the adventures
of the spunky fan-favorite cat-woman herself—Felicia!
