Anyone else read Vampire Knight Requiem (the french comic, not the manga)

No....
But fuck-all, does that look cool AF!

It's an absolute trip and I am SO DAMN EXCITED that it's getting reprinted in English next month

Basically it's about a Nazi soldier that falls in love with a Jewish woman and gets killed in battle, he wakes up as a ghoul in this alternate reality called "Resurrection" where people age backwards. When people die and wake up on Resurrection, they get reborn as different types of monsters, but the most noble of evils get reincarnated into Vampires (Knights specifically).

It's so so good. It's written by Pat Mills of 2000AD fame and is probably his best work. The art is also excellent and reminds me strongly of Clive Barker

Comics and Mangas are the same thing, aren't they?


Bad jokes aside I like that panel.

No how is it?

It's really, really cool. So many pages look like heavy metal album covers. Never checked if the artist has done album covers, but they did art for Heavy Metal/Metal Hurlant magazine anyway.

That sounds promising Heavy Metal is always cool.

In my case, I know it through the illustrator Olivier Ledroit.
I also recommend Wika, which is a bit less dark but still visually stunning.

I was going to ask if there was any news about volume 12, and I just saw it was published two years ago...
I thought I'd finally be able to finish it, but now I see they're planning to release two more volumes.
That's why I prefer to start series that are already complete.
