    Default I, Vampire. Good starting point?

    Hi guys! I've heard nothing but splendid things about I, Vampire since it first started and have gotten around to buying the first trade as well as issue 13. I was just wondering if I should wait on the second trade to come out or if issue 13 is a place where I shouldn't be too confused, at least for the time being. Thanks in advance!

    7 & 8 are a crossover between Justice League Dark & I, Vampire, so if you want, pick up those four issues, or maybe just get I, V 9-12 + 0 to see about the new status quo you'll be getting into with issue #13
    There are four stages of matter. Solid. Liquid. Gas & Don't. It's science.

    You can probably hop on with this latest issue. It's a bit of a turning point for Andrew with an all new status quo.

    #13 should be a pretty solid start point. It's the start of a new major story arc, and you'll already know who all the characters are from the first trade so figuring out what happened in those few in-between issues shouldn't be too hard.
    Be a fan of the creators, not the characters.

    The second trade will collect all the material between the first trade and issue #13, with the exception of the zero issue.

    If you have an iPad or another tablet you could get them off the comixology app for $2 each or if you want to read em off your computer you can read them off their website. They look much better on a tablet than a PC though.

    Pick up 0 and 13. As everyone said, 13 is the start of a new arc. 0 is a standalone story about how the protagonist became a vampire, so its worth picking up.

    It'd be handy to pick up Justice League Dark 7 and 8, to complete the Rise of Vampires arc, but those can wait if you're going to trade wait I Vampire issues 7 and 8.

    You won't regret picking up I, Vampire! It's a great series, one of the best DC is publishing right now!

    Start from the beginning. The status quo keeps changing, so it's crazy to start anywhere else. Plus #1 is just amazing.

    I started with issue #0 and the read the first tpb. Made sense for me that way.

    Start with the beginning, no point missing out the amazing stuff we've already had But you can always get them in trades! (when the second trade is released)

    #13 would definitely work as a good starting point I think. The status quo has just changed big time.
    Avengers Arena is one of the best books in the shops right now, it's seriously amazing.

    Show Teddy some love!
