American Vampire Volume 2 (2011) - Plot & Excerpts

3.5 stars. Vol 2 of 6. We have now arrived at 1936. Pearl has moved out of L.A. with her love Henry. In this volume we are introduced to some new characters and new locale of Las Vegas. Vampire hunters in the mix. It's a bit hard to follow at times cause you don't know who's a good guy or bad guy at times, but I'm sure all this will get resolved in later issues. So far still good and still want to continue reading. What makes American Vampire a good series? It's a hard question to answer because sometimes the plot lines can be ridiculous but I believe Snyder's writing is strong in terms of the relationships between characters I often find myself nervously turning pages waiting for the moment something tragic will happen. For this volume we're in Vegas where Skinner is butting heads with a determined lawman who obviously gets involved with the Vassals of the Morning Star and vampires come to ruin his town. There were some bumps in the story this time especially when you find out the lawman's supposedly dead father is actually an ancient vampire. It's certainly not the best story of the series but it does beat other mediocre tales.The art is what gives this volume 3 stars, the tone for this series is severely hampered by lazy artwork. The opening storyline was nearly unreadable because the art was so bad and even Rafael Albuquerque is inconsistent his artwork looks amazing on one page but then the next page looks like he drew it after taking some codeine. Nonetheless the addition of Skinner to this story makes it more enjoyable and Snyder's writing is always sharp, witty and fun.

What do You think about American Vampire Volume 2 (2011)?

Брей , неочаквано и изненадващо , но нещата взимат да се пооправят. Сюжета взима че се забавя и вкарва някои доста интересни обрати.Като цяло действието ни отнася в зародиша на Лас Вегас (някъде 1930-та). И какво по примамливо местенце за гнездене на един вампир от "Градът на Греха"? Горкият шерифец , едвам смогва с обикновенната престъпност но и да вземат да му се натресат гадни кравопийци. Лоша работа. Добре че идва на помощ орден които води битка с тези същества от край време. Дали "Американския Вампир" ще наддалее в тази битка м/у новото лошо и старото лошо? ....само един Скинър Суит знае.ПС: Аз залагам 3 към 9 че Хамериканците пак ще спечелят! :(

OOoh, this was *good*. Same great art, and now the story's really picking up. Volume 2 tells readers a bit more about the vampires in this universe, how there are different breeds. It's no longer quite the weird happenstance that Sweet isn't the same as his maker.Following three storylines this time around: Las Vegas, a basement cell, and a small idyllic town in the middle of nowhere. I won't give away which vampire's in of the latter two locations, but the Vegas story is mostly human-driven, which seems to be the way all the Sweet-related stories are. While that could be rather annoying after a while, right now it's still working.Now if only I had volume 3 on hand!
