 I'm not sure what I thought this was going to be, but it was definitely not that. 

It had its funny moments, but this graphic novel would do much better in a video/film/other live action medium. The funny moments are often missed the first read simply because it is difficult to get the tone/pace/pause/stress right for the jokes when reading them.

The ending was pretty meh--the two vampires took each other out like they apparently always do every so many years because they're immortal and they have nothing better to do. Don't even get to see the last scene.

The story was hard to follow at times and it is very text heavy. I did enjoy the art though I found it interesting that none of the characters had mouths (unless vampire bite), but the emotions were still quite clear.


 Okay read but just that...okay.
