American Vampire Omnibus Volume 1 & Volume 2 | Overview| Comparison

Ойын-сауық

Let's kick off this spooky season by talking about some great horror comics! Today I talk about the American Vampire Omnibus volume 1 and 2 from DC Black Label. I talk about the stories collected in these omnis, talk about how Stephen King ties into all of this and show the build of the books. I also compare volume 1 to the Vertigo printing.

    American Vampire is really good! I would do anything to see an R-Rated adult animated series adaptation based on the comics. That would be so cool!

    If done in live action, the guy who did the CGI for the Grimm series needs to jump in. That would clinch it for me.

    I’ve been sitting on volume 1 since it first came out waiting for a volume 2. As soon as it showed up I broke open the seal and can’t wait to binge it. I have the vertigo version and I’m honestly not mad . Not gonna drop more money just to get a version that says Black Label.

    I got both of mine & read ‘em in a week, I just couldn’t put it down. I had read a few issues of American Vampire but I was waiting for the reprint & I wasn’t disappointed. I liked the way Snyder wrapped up the story, I thought it was satisfying. I’m glad they changed the cover to vol 2 cos now they look great together. If you’re a fan of vampires & horror comics then I highly recommend this series. Perfect time of year to read this tale.

    I can't wait to read them. I always wanted to to read it but never was able to get the series and I'm not a huge fan used Trades My volume 2 will arrive tomorrow from Amazon Germany where I immediately placed my pre order last May when I saw them there since the omnibus volume 1 was impossible to find new for a fair price so I'm extremely happy that they reprinted it. And the best thing is that I only payed 74€ (around 72$) for each of them. Now they've the correct one price listed which means I've saved around 100 bucks (volume is more expensive over here at least). The video is fantastic as always and now I'm even more stoked to get the second omni in.

    Not the sort of book I usually read, but it’s tempting. In the UK following the Gunpowder Plot in 1605 (5th November) we have an annual celebration with bonfire and fireworks. So for us that date is arguably bigger than Halloween, so i’ll be reading Absolute V for Vendetta which has a similar theme.

    I love the new cover for vol.2 compared to the original. I was confused at first when picking up the book, but remembered we're dealing with DC here. DC seems to love changing cover designs at the last minute whether its for the better like with American Vampire vol.2 or for the worst like with Batwoman and Priest's Deathstroke.
