At the news site Comics for Sinners you can check out my review of Chastity #2, currently on sale from Dynamite Entertainment. It’s written by Marc Andreyko (Batwoman, Manhunter, Fairest) and illustrated by Dave Acosta (The Fallen, Vessel of Terror), and continues the story of how 1980s teen and former Olympic-level gymnast Chastity Marks becomes a member of the undead, after a run-in with her favorite vampire-fiction author—who turned out to be a real vampire! This issue picks up right after issue 1, as Chas tries to make sense of the nightmare her life has suddenly become. Stupid vampires—always ruining somebody’s life!
And speaking of teenagers having horrific encounters with vampires, let me introduce you to our resident teenaged Goth, Pandora Zwieback, who’s the star of my novel Blood Feud: The Saga of Pandora Zwieback, Book 1. Pan has spent the last decade diagnosed as a paranoid schizophrenic because she claims she can see monsters. Her friends and parents have been completely supportive, but no one knows how to help her—until Pan meets a 400-year-old, shape-shifting monster hunter named Sebastienne “Annie” Mazarin, who assures Pan that she’s not mentally imbalanced because monsters do exist and she really can see them! But just as Pan is coming to terms with that revelation, she and Annie get caught in the middle of a war among rival vampire clans that are seeking what they believe is an ultimate weapon—and it’s just been delivered to the horror museum that Pan’s father owns!
Sounds interesting, right? Then visit the Blood Feud: The Saga of Pandora Zwieback, Book 1 product page for all the ordering information, as well as a downloadable sample chapter. You’ll be glad you did! 😀
