Horror archetypes like vampires, werewolves, and Frankenstein's monster keep their presence on the down-low in Marstoke -- a city name that is appropriately a portmanteau of Mary Shelley and Bram Stoker -- so as to not violate the rule of secrecy imposed by a fascistic and draconian supernatural cabal. But one of the creatures of the night, suffering from immortal ennui and looking for something to stave off boredom, thinks he has found a loophole, using his paranormal abilities to pose as a superhero. And it works fine until copycats that go bump in the night take the game to the next level. Bloodshed ensues. Chip Zdarsky serves up a Mark Millar special: add enough action and familiar tropes to make it a viable movie pitch but not so much detail that it actually needs to make much sense. It all seems sort of original and yet is entirely too familiar. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

"Welcome to the All-Nighter, the only diner in town where you can get coffee and a meal from sunset to sunrise! The staff are friendly (kind of) and happy to serve you (sometimes), and it would never cross their minds to drink their customers' blood ... Alex and his fellow vampires, Joy, Cynthia, and Ian, have agreed to blend into human society. Inspired by superhero movies, one of few passions in his unlife, Alex decides to don a cape and start fighting bad guys."-- Ingen biblioteksbeskrivelser fundet. |

Not bad overall, but it's not something I could see myself reading a volume two.
