Drain #1 (Comics) CB Cebulski: A Marvel Exclusive, TV Work And More

Plot

Chinatsu, an immortal vampire from Japan, looks for her family’s killer, and also her vampire sire. She mercilessly searches throughout many time periods and centuries in order to achieve her revenge.

The first story-arc of six issues has been published with the latest issue released in 2008 and a tradepaperback due in 2008.

There are more story-arcs planned, but that still has to be determined pending a new artist.
