Notes:
(1) The latter half of this really underscores the tragic nature of vampires.
- You get the sense they're all addicts, blood junkies, either in never-ending states of recovery or born with a self-destructive gene that'll inevitably activate.
- It makes the ending all the more poignant. Being a lone wolf isn't good, a support system's necessary to keep urges in check.

Notes:
(1) There's a definite theme here that turning children into vampires, which one would naturally regard as evil and abhorrent, was benevolent.
- A destitute girl is saved from almost certain child prostitution.
- A dying boy is saved following what appears to be a hate crime.
- This is a post-apocalyptic wasteland, so they've been spared that death/suffering as well.

is starting
Notes:
(1) Read this in singles already, but it's been long enough that I've pretty much forgotten the story, aside from major plot points.
- This is only the latter half of the maxiseries, and I've similarly forgotten what happened in the first half.
- Starting in the middle of one long story isn't ideal. Still, I'm not going to reread Volume 1 for the sake of this reread.
