In "Big Break," Stephen King and Rafael Albuquerque deliver a haunting chapter in the American Vampire saga, where James Book grapples with the lingering curse of vampirism three years after his clash with Skinner Sweet. As Abilena faces a painful decision for the man she loves, a far more dangerous threat stirs—Skinner Sweet, freed from his earthly prison, now sets his sights on the true architect of the chaos. Rafael Albuquerque’s striking art, with Dave McCaig’s evocative colors and Steve Wands’ precise lettering, brings this dark, emotionally charged story to life, all under Albuquerque’s powerful cover art.
