Having finally feasted on "real food," Billy is acting strangely, and the other young vampires are nervous about the potential threat to their sanctuary. Romie is still missing from the group, but is accompanied elsewhere by a mysterious new friend...
Little Monsters #3 is peak vampire horror. Its also a complete collaboration; Lemire and Nguyen are a great team, and this book sees them working together completely. Its one of those comics where it would be interesting to see the script and then look at the finished product again. Little Monsters is vampire horror at its finest from a team that is nothing short of brilliant. Read Full Review
As the story continues to unfold, Little Monsters remains an exhilarating read that I highly recommend. It is a strong entry of horror that showcases some stellar work from Lemire and Nguyen. If you're a fan of vampires, you're doing a disservice to yourself not partaking in this series. Read Full Review
Nguyen delivers some beautiful art in the issue. There is a wonderful visual sense of the world of these characters and the art brilliantly complements the emotions of the characters and the darkness of their circumstances. Read Full Review
The stark black and white contrast of Little Monsters continues to be one of its strongest components, and Little Monsters #3 perhaps makes the best use of it yet. Read Full Review
When a vampires trapped in children's bodies get their first taste of human blood, all bets are off. Storytellers Jeff Lemire and Dustin Nguyen shine once again as they continue this post-apocalyptic tale of the young undead. Read Full Review
Good so far...
My favorite issue of the series so far, with a great resolution to the end of issue #2. Nguyen's art is absolutely elevating this book as it creates a wonderfully bleak atmosphere for everything to take place in. Lemire's also doing a great job building some really interesting characters, with Romie chief among them. He's always excelled at writing children and child-like characters and this book is no exception.
This issue is probably the best. It feels like we are still not heavy on plot but, what we get is good character work.
Atmosphere is top notch.
Here's a vampire tale I have no idea where is going.
Jeff Lemire is tapping into some dark stuff and presenting to us with sincere, childlike wonder.
