A chilling new chapter begins in American Vampire #25 – 2012, setting the stage for a fresh storyline that continues to evolve Scott Snyder’s groundbreaking vision of American horror. With art by the ever-expressive Rafael Albuquerque, this issue kicks off the Blacklist arc—a noir-soaked tale of vengeance, loyalty, and monsters hidden behind Hollywood’s golden age façade.
In issue #25, we return to Pearl Jones, years after the traumatic events of “Ghost War” and “Death Race.” Now living a quiet life—or trying to—Pearl is suddenly drawn back into the shadows when a familiar name resurfaces. The past isn’t done with her, and as a wave of grisly murders sweeps through Los Angeles, the real question becomes: can she walk away from the war she thought she’d left behind?
Snyder’s writing here shifts gears, embracing a slow-burn suspense that still crackles with danger. Rafael Albuquerque’s stylish, noir-tinged artwork is perfectly suited to this chapter, giving 1950s Hollywood a sinister sheen, full of long shadows, sharp glances, and unspeakable threats just out of sight. It’s not just another vampire story—it’s a commentary on power, image, and the corruption that thrives in both the human and the supernatural world.
Whether you're a long-time fan or jumping in for the Blacklist storyline, American Vampire #25 offers a strong, moody entry point with depth, danger, and intrigue in every panel.
