Dead Romeo

by Jesse Blaze Snider, Ryan Benjamin (Illustrator)

Jonathan Romero, aka "Dead Romeo," was the lead singer of the '80s rock band "The Dead Romeos." But that was before a mysterious set of circumstances turned him into a vampire and sent him straight to Hell. Now he's back on Earth and he has a difficult choice to make: Kill his true love and earn his permanent release from eternal damnation - or protect her and burn for eternity. Either way, someone is going to die! It's vampires, romance, rock and dismemberment like you've never seen before!

I know that graphic stories need to be boiled down to a minimum, but the storyline in Dead Romeo was missing a few key elements and thus was less enjoyable than it could have been. The artwork was good, although I always prefer it when the characters actually resemble themselves when seen from different angles or with different expressions; but the story failed to explain or give a hint as to a key element of the plot, e.g. who specifically were the bad guys supposed to find. But we find out at the very end, and, lacking a hint as to that important detail, I felt like the writer had deliberately misled me the reader with the lack of information.

I enjoyed it well enough, but there wasn't enough there to make the thing worth the price I paid for it. So...meh.

An interesting vampire novel, but it definitely could have been a lot better.

Not that great.
