The first issue opens at then end of October 1897, just six months after the first publication of Bram Stoker's novel Dracula. In a narrative device that will be repeated throughout the rest of the series, this issue uses letters written by Dracula which retell the events that spawned the century-long rivalry between himself and fellow vampire Spike. Dracula is enamored by a Romani sorceress named Magda and does everything he can to convince her to join him as a vampire. One day, Dracula discovers that Magda and her entire clan has been slaughtered, and quickly identifies the killers as the vampires Spike, Drusilla, and Darla.
