   While the first micro-story is kinda well done, the rest of these tiny-tales are nothing more than pitiful echoes of the first. Decaying in quality and length, each telling from the first becomes weaker as their distance grows. Frustratingly odd and abrupt endings riddled with a hefty portion of edge(iness) there really isn’t much to show for this so called “anthology.”

   We don’t live by their rules. We make our own way. That’s what it means to be like we are. It’s hard, but it’s a powerful kind of hard.

   An anthology graphic novel much like volume one. We see several time periods and several different vampires, some we know and some we don't. The main story is touched upon but not a whole lot of new ground is broken. The various stories are still interesting as the many time periods are always fun to read about. This one seemed more like a book done to keep American Vampire on the shelf until the next series started, but I think things are running slower than expected.

   This is mostly to chase the bad aftertaste after the end of Second Cycle. Which vas less than unsatisfying. Most of the stories follow shards of the world after the Second Cycle. And that's better than nothing, but every shard is a really short story and every single one is worst than ones from the first anthology. It is maybe better than the 7th book, but it is half short. Well, AMVAMP didn't have swan's song. It died like a scrabby old vampire, forsaken, rotting and very slowly. And this antho This is mostly to chase the bad aftertaste after the end of Second Cycle.

   This was basically a snippet, a year in (Cycle 2 ended in 2015), to keep people interested until the series restarted in 2017 (which, turns out, will be 2018 but I digress). Regardless, it's an enjoyable collection, as it provides a small a look at what the decimated VMS and Skinner Sweet are planning in the late 60s (in the aftermath of the Cycle 2 conclusion), what is happening with the vampire population and then affords creative freedom to very interesting writers and artists, in order to us This was basically a snippet, a year in (Cycle 2 ended in 2015), to keep people interested until the series restarted in 2017 (which, turns out, will be 2018 but I digress).

All the guest stories date from the 18th to the 20th century, from Japan to some Slavic country I've never heard of, to (obviously) America and a couple are even interesting as oral storytelling material. As far as horror goes, it's a light, enjoyable, page-flipping read.

   This anthology is quite a bit better than the first, whether the stories really tie into the main plotlines of American Vampire or not. The art is better, the colors more diverse, the choice in tales more interesting and I found the writing and pacing better within the small span of pages that each has been allowed.

Oh fuck yeah. Biased 5 star rating for Jim fucking Book. I wasn't too hot on this at first but we got Gus and Travis sightings, yay! And then: "Jesus. Jim? Jim Book?" Oh fuck yeah.
