And where's that little Man-Thing?
One thing about this Shadow Colonel is, well, while he's declaring himself the Lord of the Vampires, that's very premature since Dracula is still alive. From what I understand, the Lord of the Vampires title can only be transfered by killing the Lord of the Vampires. And it seems like Dracula is running not just to avoid death, but to ultimately avoid handing over the title.
