    As always, Scott Snyder puts in a solid comic that does most everything right. It's a bold move to jump so far back in time considering that the series has been moving forward up until this piont, and the choice is an exciting one. I can't wait to see what comes next for Jim Book and Skinner Sweet. Read Full Review

    Really, really good. Love the story and LOVE the art. Bernet is really a living legend and it is such a pleasure to enjoy contemporary work from him. Read Full Review

    American Vampire #19 is another solid entry into this series and comes highly recommended. Learning Skinner Sweet's backstory is probably worth the price of admission alone for American Vampire fans. However, after last month's incredible finale to "Ghost War," Scott Snyder's decision to sidestep that momentum to wind the clock back for a story covering Skinner's past might be disappointing to some. But if you're a diehard American Vampire fan, you'll gladly take whatever this creative team spoon feeds you. Read Full Review
