Bite Club: Vampire Crime Unit #1 (of 5)
Writer: Howard Chaykin and David Tischman
Artist: David Hahn
Letters: Jared K. Fletcher
Colors: Brian Miller
Plot:
After a murder in the vampire section of Miami, Florida,
the police, also vampires, are led into a world of vampire
clubs, wannabe goth kids, and the family that keeps this
section of town in line with the rest of the world.
Review: First of all this cover has to be mentioned
in its own right. I am just saying. You gotta buy this just
for the cover. Wow.
Ok, Bite Club is a noir police story about vampires.
Complete with heavily shadowed art, strong, mysterious
women, and enough sexuality to make the old Anne Rice wish
she had written it first. All that and with dialogue like:
“The card smelled just like her” ... “a blend of perfume and
butcher shop” do you really want to have to say that you
didn’t pick this up? This comic is more fun than $3 books
have any right to be.
Special thanks go out to Jeremy Shorr, owner of Titan Comics for allowing us to use his advance preview books for review purposes.
