Dark Shadows Comic Strip Book

This is about the Dark Shadows comic strips that were run in some newspapers for a while. The book has a foreward, an introduction, information on how the strip series was promoted, the strips themselves (all in black and white), and information about the Gold Key comic book series along with other information.

The comic strips ended up with four stories.

A guy named bell had a mother that was a witch and was burned at the stake. He swore (like so many others) to kill all the Collins for revenge.

Isis, the goddess, finds an amulet that will help her transfer the soul of Osiris into a suitable body which just happens to be the body of Barnabas. The various incarnations of Barnabas are shown and she ends up falling in love with Barnabas.

Another story has a werwolf attacking people and Barnabas tries to find out what is going on.

A strange story is a villain named Mr. Sinestra (which is a pretty hokey name, actually) who wants Barnabas' soul. There are a couple more stories.

All in all the stories are pretty good and, like a soap opera, take a while to finish a story. This is not a book that's easy to get, although I did manage to find a copy on Amazon. It is definitely worth adding to your collection.
