Title: Quirky and wonderful!
Review: Yes, it took me a moment or two to get used to reading the panels right-to-left from the back of the book forward (don't pick on me; I don't read many graphic novel/manga-type things). By the time I was a few pages in, however, it wasn't a problem any more. The style is quirky and evocative, the characters are grandiose and fun, and the black-and-white art is easy to make sense of (sometimes I find that comic styles confuse the action that's going on, at least for me). The story of vampires, vampire hunters, Catholics versus Protestants, and plenty of large weaponry, is deliciously outrageous. I picked up the first book after watching the DVDs, and loved it enough that I've already picked up the second.
