I think
Pearl is the best female bad-ass of all time. Mr. Sweet? The All American
bad-ass. I actually really want Pearl and him to get together but it doesn’t
look like it’s in the cards. I think the two of them could actually take on
North American easily. Pearl is currently with a human who she watches age, as
she goes on unchanged physically. I actually don’t care for his character at
all. He reminds me of whiney Riley in Buffy the Vampire Slayer. “oh poor me, I’m
dating a strong female who doesn’t really need me and just loves me” WTF? Fuck
Riley. God I disliked that character. I had so much animosity towards the
character that I wanted to send hate mail to Marc Blucas.. okay I wouldn’t do
that.. but I was an angry teenager and he pissed me off. Heh.
Sorry, I
went off topic there. So Skinner Sweet does a sort of disappearing act and we
learn that the only thing that can kill this new rare American Vampire is –GOLD!
Wait a second, gold? Why gold? Well they don’t give us a reason. I guess it’s
some parallel between the fact that the sun actually makes these new Vampires
stronger, so gold gets to be their Kryptonite. Wait, that doesn’t make sense
does it? Okay chuck that, I really have no idea why gold is so deadly to these
guys. We also know that there is another blind monster breed of vampires that
can seriously injure Skinner Sweet.
I’m not
going to give away the plot of this volume, that is to say, I’m too lazy to
summarize it. Our heroes/villains all travel overseas and there is a deadly new
group of vampire hunters who have no idea what they are getting into. That’s
all you get from me. Just read the damn book, the art work is to bite people
over. I love it.
