After all the teenage vampire stories that have been done is a fresh take possible? I am going to put forward that the argument is possibly yes. I haven't read a ton of teenage vampire stories, but I find this a refreshing take on teenage vampires, and vampires in general.

Our trio of teenagers are dealing with multiple issues. How to finish high school, a possible love triangle (which causes typical teenage emotional trauma and angst), and the issue of power and responsibility (without Peter Parker's being maudlin about it every minute).

Do our trio keep doing YouTube videos, and the occasional super heroing, or do they resort to using their abilities to make themselves famous and well liked?

Each has their own answer, and one's answer (no spoilers) leads to the creation of severe trouble for our lead characters.

Another Teenage/Vampire redo!?!?

Idk man these vampires ain't hittin'

Teenage vampires turning into superheroes was the premise of the first six issues, which I unfortunately did not read, however. In this new 6 issues, the roosters come to pen and tragedy ensues. Illustrations dark, claustrophobic atmospheres and everything is really appropriate to the story.

Vampiri adolescenti che si trasformano in supereroi era la premessa dei primi sei numeri, che peró purtroppo non ho letto. In questa nuova serie (altri sei numeri), i nodi vengono al pettine e si sfiora la tragedia. Illustrazioni cupe, atmosfere claustrofobiche e tutto molto adeguato alla storia.

I received from the Publisher a complimentary digital advanced review copy of the book in exchange for a honest review.

Technically, I read the 6 individual comics, not the collection.

Started reading as single issues… pretty good tbh. A decent climax too.. this is one of the better Millarworld Books this year.

[Dakota Morgan]

Mark Millar's dumbest series somehow gets dumber. The kid vampires/superheroes are broken up because both the boys like the same girl. One of the boys gets the smart idea to become a cool jock (he apparently wins a pickup basketball game by 200 POINTS) so that he can win over the hottest girl in school. Great plan, until the girl asks to become a vampire too, and then reveals that she and the jocks are actually serial killers-in-waiting.

The insane twist of normal kids suddenly becoming scheming villains is only made more awkward through Millar's tell-don't-show dialogue. It all leads to some admittedly exciting twists and battles, if only because everything happens at 200% volume, but you can reallyyy see the gears turning to make this one a level above pure trash. Artwork's pretty decent. The cliffhanger ending suggests there will be more, which I'll probably read, but I don't feel good about it.

This coulda/shoulda/woulda be Buffy-like in its use of vampirism as metaphor for growing pains but instead it's Buffy-lite and a bite (sic) of a pain to get through.

Shame. There's potential in this premise but the plot and characterisation don't fulfill the promise.

Ramirez's art is A+ however.

[Will Cooper]

Teenagers become vampires, post on social media, and fight other teenagers.

Had a scene where a girl is having sex with a guy and said, "That's the best sex I've ever had" while the other teens were murdering people in a room, if you're worried that there's not edgelord stuff in here. You're safe!

[Chad]

What happens to our teenage vampire superheroes when the popular kids become vampires too? That's the question that gets answered here. It's ultimately not bad.

Excellent storytelling

[Sonic]

A fun one from Millar.

A Weak 3/5 Supernatural Thriller Graphic Novel Volume about vampire jocks going on a rampage

[The Geeky Viking]

Night Club Volume 2 is the second installment in Mark Millar's vampires-as-superheroes and it's just as awesome as it sounds. Fantastic visuals and a smart, fast-moving story make this another winner from the comic book master. Can't wait for the third volume.

[Eric]

Three stars seems like a lot for a series that has way too many mixed-ideas but this is a step-up from the first volume. Good vampires fighting bad vampires. It's still not "good" in the way I like stories to be, but this is the harmless kind of dumb that Mark Millar can write. I don't know what the last "good" Millar comic was, but this meets the low bar set by the last few years of pre-approved Netflix concepts.

[Simon]

Thought the first one was a bit cheesy and silly, but the darkness got turned up in this one! Great comic.
