review:

B.P.R.D.: Vampire follows events in B.P.R.D.:1947. B.P.R.D. is the paranormal organization that Hellboy is part of and in these stories he's still quite young, so the stories are about other members of the organization.



This story involves a young sailor named Simon Anders who seems to have two demonic sisters trapped inside him. He decides to go in search of the vampires behind these spirits. The question is if he will get lost in his quest for vengeance or if he can rid himself of the two spirits living inside.



I've read a few of the B.P.R.D. series. They are all informed by the art of Mike Mignola, so even though there are different artists, there is an overarching cohesive look to the series. I really like that approach. The artists on this 5-issue series are Fabio Moon and Gabriel Ba, Brazil's Wonder Twins. Their work here is gruesome and dark and I quite liked it.



I was given a review copy of this graphic novel by Diamond Book Distributors and Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for letting me review this graphic novel.
