My counterparts in reviewing seem to be very impressed with this series. Both the first and the second issue were very highly rated by reviewers. So, here I am all set to chime this latest issue, which could prove to be a turning point in the stories of Pearl as well as Skinner Sweet.

Pearl believes in her gut feelings but also has the intelligence to handle her urges with utmost care and this combination makes her a real force. This issue seems to have no boundaries whatsoever and Snyder manages to surprise and shock.

Sweet’s story in this issue focuses primarily on his reawakening. Stephen King’s story of Skinner discovering himself is full of grudges and resentment. King projects Sweet as monster of a person and it is fairly understandable too as in Will Bunting’s words “Monsters sell”.

When you read the book you have a feeling that the latter half of it is less than polished and hasn’t been given the same importance as the first half. The colors seem to be more painterly and it feels like you are seeing through a glass covered with fog or perhaps old and hazy memories being stringed together.

The American Vampire has definitely got everything to make it a great success and Mr. King is definitely going to rule this world. However, one must give due credit to the entire team that has made this possible. The combined effort of each member reflects in the creation and speaks volumes about their abilities. This is undoubtedly a great piece of imagination.
