review:
'The Vain' by Eliot Rahal with art by Emily Pearson is a vampire graphic novel that takes place over the last 80 years.

When a blood bank is robbed and only the blood is stolen, the story appeals to a young FBI agent named Felix Franklin. The four vampires find themselves fighting for the allies, then struggling to hide in an increasingly technological world. The book follows their violent story and the life of a man chasing a crazy theory.

There are some good ideas here, but they don't gel for me. There is a lot going on and I found it hard to care for these characters. The art lacks fluidity and the figures seem awkwardly stiff.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Oni Press and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
