American Vampire flashes back to two very distinct points in American history. The first tale comes from the early 1800's with the "The Beast in the Cave" featuring art by the legendary Jordi Bernet (Torpedo, Jonah Hex). Learn about the original American Vampire, Skinner Sweet, and his involvement in the brutal Indian Wars, and an ancient evil hidden in the heart of the Old West. Plus, more about the man Skinner used to call his best friend - James Book! The second tale comes straight from 1950s America, where American Vampire is terrorizing the suburbs with hot rods, teenyboppers and fangs! "Death Race" focuses on ferocious new vampire hunter Travis Kidd - but what is his connection to Skinner Sweet? As the story comes to a violent end, a sworn enemy's identity is finally revealed, and lots of blood is spilled! Writer Scott Snyder (Batman, Swamp Thing) and artist Rafael Albuquerque bring together even more threads to the complex tapestry that is the world of American Vampire. Collecting: American Vampire 19-27
Publication Year: 2012

Volume 4 brings Skinner, Pearl, Henry and the others to the fifties, with the addition of a greaser kid, Travis, who's made a life out of hunting and killing vampires. It was fun to see everyone in the fifties and Travis was awesome, but not quite as good as volume 3. Still one I'd recommend to fans of the series or graphic novels in general!
0My favorite, so far! The greaser, the added backstory for Skinner Sweet, I just really enjoyed this one the most.
