  • 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.

    I swear... every time I hear about something to read, it's already covered on this channel!
    Great work, as always, guys... thanks for the reviews 😀

    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.

    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 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.

    I've had the original volume 1. This looks so fricken sweet! I didn't think DC would get it right based on there track record (Green arrow, Mike Grell. I'm looking at you) but they smashed it out of the park. Well done DC!

    • @davidgraham8299
      @davidgraham8299 Рік тому

      What did they do wrong with Grell's GA? Got vol 1 and I've been on the fence about vol2. Genuinely curious.

      @@davidgraham8299 the problem he’s talking about is that the spines don’t match but if you don’t care about matching spines it’s perfectly fine

    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.

    Since it's getting close to Halloween, I have a question about a certain graphic Novel. Have you ever read 30 days of night? If you have is it a good Novel and would you recommend it?

    I enjoyed Vol. 1 more. Vol.2 didn't work for me. It was too cheesy and almost near comically dumb, but I guess it had to be.

    Can't help yourself and spoil things as usual! Not looking at these "overviews" anymore.

      @NearMintCondition  Рік тому +19

      What in the world was spoiled for you? I do my best to keep from spoilers when talking about books. If the overviews aren’t for you. Plenty of other channels out there that I’m sure will fit your needs.

    • @davidgraham8299

      You can look elsewhere and I guarantee you'll come right back. No one does overviews like Omar and what was spoiled? Vampires in America! Gasp!
