Another April Fool’s Day joke? Doesn’t seem like it but for the sake of America I hope this is friggen true. Mohawk Media chose the Fool’s Day to announce their Mr. T Versus crossover comic magazines, the first release will be Mr. T vs Dracula, with many more crossovers to follow.

Explaining the series, author Christopher Bunting says: “When I proposed these crossovers, Mohawk Media jumped at the chance and went to great lengths to make them happen. Who can blame them? Two legends … a living legend and an undead legend … going toe to toe. It doesn’t get much more exciting than that,” Bunting continues: “Kicking – or should that be biting – off the series is Dracula. How is someone as devious as him going to handle someone as straight talking as Mr. T? And as powerful as Dracula is, he’s not met anyone as tough as Mr. T before!”

As Mr. T says in the story: “All these suckers with their fancy powers! They need a reality check, and only one guy can do that, and that’s me, Mr. T,” and I say, FUCK YEAH! Bring back Mr. T.

If you remember (which you probably don’t) Mr. T appeared in another comic, Mr. T and the T-Force in 1993. He took on drug dealers instead of vampires and it actually lasted 14 issues, but now it probably graces the $.25 bins at your local comic book store. I used to have an autographed copy of issue #1. I wonder where it went?
