Baltimore: The Plague Ships
More in the "Weird War" veib, BALTIMORE (Based on the novel by Mike Mignola and Christopher Golden) is an upcoming comic by Master Mignola and it looks and sounds highly promising:
Months after a devastating plague ends World War I, Europe is suddenly flooded with deadly vampires. Lord Henry Baltimore, a soldier determined to wipe out the monsters, is on the hunt for the creature responsible for this chaos and his own personal tragedy. What he uncovers is a terror as horrific and frightening as any he's seen on the battlefield.

The original Baltimore book is a great read.
Very gothic overtones about a man driven to slay the plague-like vampires and spirits roaming Europe. I don't remember an exact time period for the story, but if Mike is writing it, it should be worth picking up.
