Biography[]
Drak was the teenage great-nephew of the infamous Count Dracula. Along with his pals Frankie and Howler, he possessed the ability to shed his human guise and embrace his vampiric talents whenever the three clasped hands and shouted the word, "Whacko!" Together, these teens sought to atone for the sins of their parents by using their monster powers for the good of humanity. They often clashed with the villainous forces of the Organization of Generally Rotten Endeavors, aka, O.G.R.E. and its leader, Doctor Dred.
Abilities[]
Drak possessed superhuman abilities, many of which were outside the norm even for vampires. He could fly of his own accord, possessed the ability to move objects with his mind and could change his shape into any animal that he chose. Invariably however, Drak preferred the traditional bat form.
