The Crimson Queen makes her first appearance and brings with her one of the most disturbing truths about the Vampire Wars: you can't tell who is infected. The enemy might be right next to you. This is a war that will be fought everywhere- within the government, within communities, within families. And, no matter how it ends, The World. Is. Going. To. Bleed.

    Comic Bastards - Samantha Roehrig Aug 27, 2014

    Swann and the Queen have a long discussion throughout the comic. Again, not much action, but V Wars doesn't need much action for there to still be things happening all around you. For instance, Swann's past comes back in a big way. It would be undermining his story if I said his past was haunting him, because it is just is past and it isn't just haunting him. Swann has to live with these thoughts every day and never knowing what is happening to his little girl. And because of this, he is on that edge of crazy. I am not saying Swann is crazy, but I truly think that he could be pushed, even if he is the most level-headed character in the story. So when the Queen asks for a favor, he follows. He follows for many reasons, but it all leads to one place; Swann is working for the Bloods to try to find the peace instead of the Beats. A change of events that will keep me reading on once more though this dark story. Read Full Review
