'Dracula vs. Robin Hood vs. Jekyll & Hyde' announced by Mohawk

Dracula vs. Robin Hood vs. Jekyll & Hyde has been launched by Mohawk Media.
The crossover project, which pits classic characters from literature and folklore against one another, is written by Chris Bunting and illustrated by JL Czerniawski.
"I've already written a few famous faces, but this is something extra special: bringing a number of world-famous characters together for the ultimate showdown," said Bunting
"My other goal was to redress the mistreatment these characters have so often received. Robin Hood isn't portrayed here as the gallant hero he obviously never was, and Dracula is closer in tone to the original than perhaps ever before."
He added: "As for Jekyll and Hyde, he was the main inspiration for the Hulk. Because of this, it never felt right that Hulk was always portrayed as bigger and stronger… until now."
Bunting and Czerniawski previously collaborated on Mohawk's Mr T. comics, in which the former A-Team star is expected to be killed off in a future issue.
Dracula vs. Robin Hood vs. Jekyll & Hyde is available in various digital formats as part of the publisher's Eco Comics range.
The first issue is available to download now via Mohawk's website.
