Tales of the Vampires #4
In this atmospheric 2004 tale from Dark Horse, a young Kansas farmer’s life shatters when his mother turns him into a vampire—then kills him in a moment of tragic desperation. Written by Jane Espenson and brought to life by Jeff Parker’s distinctive art, inks, colors, and letters, the story follows his solitary journey to understand what it means to be something neither living nor dead. The haunting cover by Ben Edlund captures the eerie mood of a world where the line between hunter and hunted is dangerously thin.
