First, let me say that I am a HUGE fan of this kind of comic. The first story, featuring Ulysses Bloodstone, is easily the best, but the Dracula story is pretty good too. The other two (A Shang-Chi story, and a Black Goliath story) are meh, but not terrible. It gets four stars for being like the old weird tales-style comics of yesteryear. I hope more of these make it out into the market, and strange stories and new writers get to be featured.

I’m calling this 4 star. I really dug the opening story (swords & sorcery with a definite Marvel twist!). Art and story were tops. Bloodstone I think it was called. I hope to see more.
Story 2 was a Shang-Chi (sp?). He is a Marvel character I know not much of, but both story and art were enjoyable.
Story 3 is a Dracula story, written and drawn by Becky Cloonan. That will either excite you or turn you away. Myself, I’m a fan. Fun fact, there is an edition of Bram Stokers Dracula illustrated by Becky Cloonan.
The 4th story was a Goliath story (who I thought was dead, but admittedly, I’m behind the times on current Marvel happenings). The story was slight, more of a joke and it has cartoonish art that I didn’t care for.

Way more entertaining than the other entries in this series...

Bizarre Adventures fue una gran serie. Sería una gran suerte que se publicara algo semejante en la actualidad.
Este número de 2019 contiene una disolución al 20% de lo que fuera aquel título de décadas atrás.
La historia de Bloodstone está a la altura. Por eso es la primera y es la que realmente sostiene este número.
La historia de Shang Chi es casi un chiste, como lo es por completo la historia que cierra el número.
La historia de Drácula está "bien", sin más.
En general, a las historias les falta guión, historias realmente estremecedoras. Eso era la marca de la serie, y Bloodstone roza ligeramente ese nivel.
La portada de Carlos Pacheco es, como no, excelente. Pero la segunda portada de este número me gusta más, por ser absolutamente del estilo pictórico que caracterizó a Aventuras Bizarras en los ochenta.

Inconsistent is the best I can say about this. Would have preferred to see any or all of these stories to appear as back-ups in an ongoing Marvel Comics Presents title.
