In my "Formative Graphic Novels of the 20th century video," there is one I can add to the list between 1956 EC Picto Fiction and 1968's His Name Is... Savage by Gil Kane. That would be Dracula, the 1966 original graphic novel produced by Russ Jones which was recently beautifully recompiled and edited with a new foreword by Vanguard Publications and cover by Frank Frazetta available at Vanguard and Bud's Art Books. The illustrations are by Alden McWilliams, and script adapted by Otto Binder and Craig Tennis from Bram Stoker's 1897 original novel with the book produced for Ballantine Books by founding Creepy editor, Russ Jones. In fact, it's likely that Jones painted the original 1966 cover. Bela Lugosi and Christopher Lee had portrayed the titular character by this point in time. This formative graphic novel that holds a firm place in the 20th century sequential story telling experience.
