Dumas udgav Greven af Monte Cristo som føljetonroman (1830-ernes og 40-ernes store dille) fra august 1844 til januar 1846.

Er baseret på Poul Einer Hansens fine nyoversættelse i et letforståeligt moderne dansk, der bevarer romanens struktur, uden at beskære den for personer eller scener, i en strammere, mere økonomisk fortælleform.
