review 1: Really enjoyed reading this graphic novel. It was a little dark, but you really can't beat a story with WWI German vampires in it. I thought Lord Henry Baltimore was an interesting character as well. His story was a little dreary, but his personal war against evil is his redeeming factor.

This first volume lays out the vast, strange reach of the curse, which employs a creepy fungal growth as well as the usual agents for raising the dead. Fortunately, Baltimore seems immune to the contagion. A decent first outing. I look forward to seeing where it goes. less
