We have a compelling group of heroes, a terrifying villain lurking in the background, and a strong setup for a thrilling final arc.

American Vampire 1976 #1 is a great Halloween comic with its serial killers, secret conspiracy organizations, and of course, vampires. If the train robbery or the serial killer angle to the story doesn't make you want to read more, then the art definitely will. My one issue is that it's not very friendly to new readers of Snyder'sAmerican Vampire. There were a few times characters and organizations were introduced and I was confused as to who they were and why they were important. However, the team did a great job of making me want to go back and catch up on the series. Read Full Review

It impressively pulls off a debut that's accessible for new readers and should excite longtime fans. Despite being years since the last chapter, American Vampire doesn't miss a beat with its return.

American Vampire 1976 is off to a great start. The partnership between Snyder and Albuquerque is on full display as they know how to move the focus to what is important for the readers and is an opportunity to showcase each other's talents. The story does get daunting and intimidating for new readers with all the characters. It doesn't distract from the story but it makes you want to reread or start reading it from the beginning.

American Vampire 1976 #1 goes big. It leans on the nostalgia of the 70s. Skinner's motorcycle daredevil is perfect for the time period. Staring out a new series that also exists in the world of an existing series is a hard circle to square, but if anyone can do it, Scott Snyder can. This first issue pulls no punches. What a last panel. Read Full Review
