And then the big twist with who the Vampire king turned out to me.. okay they really did that.. I wasn't expecting that but okay the whole twist actually leaves on a pretty good mark and will make you keep reading future volumes or spin offs and it's actually a pretty good status quo because this guy is like the heart of DC/superheroes but now it's gonna be awesome to see how the whole thing is resolved or how it plays out. Loved it.

Batman fought a version of Bram Stoker's Count Dracula before he transformed into one of these monsters in the Batman & Dracula trilogy, by Doug Moench and Kelley Jones. I... Vampire, by J. M. DeMatteis and Tom Sutton, marks Andrew Bennett's debut. The tormented vampire transforms his own lover, Mary, who created her own clan, the Blood Red Moon, ready to take over the world. These are some of the most classic take on vampires in the DC universe, but there are other versions of these monsters too. From obscure heroes, such as the Outsiders' Looker to alien threats, such as Hellblazer's King of Vampires, they have always been a part of this universe.
