Description:
WHEN THESE CRIMINALS PUT THE BITE ON, THEY'RE NOT KIDDING! From acclaimed writer Howard Chaykin (American Flagg!, Black Kiss, American Century), David Tischman and penciller David Hahn (Private Beach) comes a tale of crime that has real bite! Eduardo del Toro is dead. Unsurprising, to those who knew him simply as the head of one of the West Coast's most powerful criminal organisations, but absolutely shocking to his lieutenants and his son, Leto - who knew he was also a vampire! As the killer used wooden bullets, it's obvious he or she knew the truth too...Now Leto, a former priest thrust into the world of organised crime, must find the killer, and fast - before someone takes a bite out of him! Warning: Adults Only!



My Review:
This book had a late 80s early 90s feel to it. Too much back story and exposition dragged the story down. The artwork should have been utilized better so written exposition wouldn’t have been used as much.

There was a nice twist at the end but nothing clueing you in that this might happen.

Just not my thing. :( I haven’t picked any good vampire books lately. Hopefully, my luck will change. :/

Taking out of the vampire book box. Looks like a quick read then I'll send them packing

putting back into the vampire book box

This book rode to the end of the box, and has now joined my shelf. Since this is slim, I think I'll give it a go despite the clunky-looking artwork and Spatial's unimpressed review.

Sent to the winner of the US-version of the Colors Sweepstakes, themed around the color pink. This book probably has the most pink on it of the books I included!

(And after sending this Release Note, I realized that I shelved this with ready-to-be-released books, but obviously forgot to write a JE. I found this a moderately entertaining comic; not memorable, but good enough for a low-brain-effort read in between other books. The artwork and style is definitely a product of a particular time, and already starts to seem a little dated.)

Thank you emmejo for including this in my box of pink goodies!

I'm a very special book. I'm traveling the world in search of new friends. I hope I have found one in you. If you are my new owner please make a brief journal entry with my BCID number. You can read and release me for a new friend to read or keep me. It's your choice!
