From the press release:

"Jae Lee presents the original Dracula in a unique Gothic style that will appeal to both fans of the classic and a new generation of readers. A modern master of comic book illustration, he presents Stoker's complete work accompanied by forty original drawings. His subtle, evocative drawings enliven the text throughout, revealing both the terror and lure of this horror masterpiece.

Jae became the youngest professional comic book artist ever to work for a major comic book company and quickly gained recognition for his dark, Gothic work. Widely regarded as one of the most stylistically unique artists in comics today, Jae Lee has received the Eisner Award, the most prestigious award in comics, and has exhibited at the Society of Illustrators Museum in New York. He was the producer of the Hellshock series and worked with Marvel Comics on The Inhumans, Fantastic Four, Spider-Man, and The Uncanny X-Men."
