Drain is a creator-owned comic, written by C. B. Cebulski and painted by Sana Takeda. It was published by American company Image Comics1 in 2006–2008, for a total of six issues,2 collected in a trade paperback in 2008.
Plot
Chinatsu, a vampiress from Japan, looks for her family's killer, and also her vampire sire. She mercilessly searches throughout many time periods and centuries in order to exact her revenge.3
Cebulski described the plot as follows, "Chinatsu was left as the sole survivor in order to recount the horror she and her clan had suffered and spread fear across the land. She was to become an immortal example of the fate that would befall those who crossed the vampires. Instead, Chinatsu has made it her mission to make them regret their actions".4
Collected editions
A trade paperback (ISBN 1582407525) was published in May 2008 and included the six issues, with Sana Takeda re-mastering and re-coloring the artwork. It also included an additional behind-the-scenes, Making of Drain, part.5
