American Vampire, Vol. 4 by Scott Snyder, Rafael Albuquerque, Jordi Bernet

3.0

Well, for a vampire who's been shut up in a cave & not allowed to eat for decades, that Mimteh sure has retained her bosom, hasn't she? This is a pretty fair fourth installment of this series, although I found the Mimteh storyline & the lady bubble-bottom contained within to be kind of unintentionally hilarious. Even when I slow down & read carefully, there are still some panel inconsistencies in Albuquereque's artwork that bug me, but maybe that's more Snyder's fault than his? I absolutely love Travis the teenage vampire killer. The artwork that accompanies the story of his formative years, especially the big-eyed baby boy hiding under the cabinet while his parents are being murdered - good grief, but that bit got to me. I'm a pretty big fan of Calvin Poole, too, especially that scene in the hotel pool. I will now just patiently wait on the fifth book since there's not nearly enough Pearl here to keep me satisfied.
