I know it has nothing to do with Tec, but since it's mentioned in the thread, American Vampire: Survival of the Fittest is friggen awesome. Love Sean Murphy on the interiors. He makes Felicia and Cash look so good. Those two need to bone or something though haha, the tension has been building this entire series.
But yeah... Tec is good... Always awesome when you get more Scott Snyder books on the same day though.

American Vampire: Survival of the Fittest really has been awesome. Sean Murphy's interiors have been great, and Felicia and Cash just rock. I find them very compelling.
Also given how one of the ancient Vampires looked, i wonder if Werewolves are a species of Vampire or something.Last edited by Godlike13; 08-10-2011 at 03:35 PM.

Double agreed. Snyder is amazing at all this crazy dark stuff, and he's had the best luck with artists. Rafael Albuquerque, Jock, Francisco Francavilla, Sean Murphy... all amazing comic book artists whose work really fit the tone of his writing perfectly. Murphy's art is gloriously dark, I love how everyone's eyes are almost black. And Detective 881 absolutely deserves five stars. Has anyone read Severed #1? I forgot to pick it up.
