Now a Netflix series starring Ian Somerhalder.

V-Wars is set in a world transformed by a global pandemic caused by a millenia-old virus that, once triggered, affects individuals differently depending on their DNA resulting in vampires as unique as their cultures. But, the response from unaffected humans is like never before leading to all-out war.

These all-new tales chronicling the early days of the Vampire Wars offer the first salvo in the battle between humans and hundreds of new species of vampires! No matter how it ends, The world is going to bleed. Collects issues #1–5.

Another fantastic Maberry! Obviously, I might be a bit biased since I've been a fan of his for years, but I really enjoyed this story. I loved the concept behind these vampires and how society and our cultures would realistically view them, if something like this happened.

It's not good. Could it ever have happened any other way?

I'm absolutely looking forward to the show on Netflix and will definitely be reading more of these stories (especially since I've hear a Mr. Joseph Edwin Ledger makes an appearance).
